Crib Point Pool is being repaired. It sprang a leak following damage caused by the earthquake in September 2021.

The pool was closed, and work has been ongoing to find out the source and the extent of the leaks.

“We’re pleased to announce, the damage is fixable, and work has already started to repair the pool ready for the 2022-23 season,” said a Mornington Peninsula Council representative.

“We apologise for the pool closure this summer season but our other facilities, operated in partnership with Belgravia Leisure, at Pelican Park Aquatic Centre in Hastings and Yawa Aquatic Centre in Rosebud remain open.

Mayor Cr Anthony Marsh said: “We know how much the Crib Point community love their pool, and we’re incredibly pleased to learn the damage is repairable. Over the coming months, we will be repairing the pool to get it reopened in time for the 2022–2023 summer period for all to enjoy.”

Cr Lisa Dixon said: “Thank you for your ongoing patience as we fix this issue, we’ve all certainly missed our wonderful facility this summer however we’ll be back stronger than ever later this year.”
