The Bluffton Pool is the town’s public swimming pool, at 55 Pritchard Street, a few minutes from Old Town. Beaufort County Parks and Recreation runs it. It is one of the parks in Bluffton. The pool is covered, so swimming does not depend on the weather, and it has lap lanes for exercise swimming.
The 2025 Renovation
The pool closed for a year of repairs and reopened on June 3, 2025. The work covered the pool deck, a new heating and ventilation system to cut down humidity, a new translucent exterior wall system, better wheelchair access and renovated restrooms.
Hours and Fees
The county changes the pool’s hours by season and weekday, and has adjusted them several times, so a hours list written here would go stale. Call (843) 255-6792 or check bcscrec.com for the current lap swim and open swim times, admission and lesson sign-ups.
