Gourock Outdoor Pool

The lido was opened in 1909, and the water heating system was installed in 1969. The pool was closed at the end of the 2010 summer season for a major improvement project, which was completed before the end of 2011. The existing changing accommodation was replaced with a more modern leisure centre, incorporating an enlarged gymnasium and lift access from the street level down to the new changing accommodation and the upgraded pool. A 2004 photograph of the pool by Martin Parr was used as the album cover for The Ballad of Darren (2023) by rock band Blur.

The pool is heated and uses salt water taken from the Firth of Clyde. The water is filtered, cleaned and maintained at a minimum temperature of 29 C. Facilities include a gym and a children's pool. The lido opens from May to the first week in September. The pool is 33.3 metres in length to accommodate a water polo pool with a goal at each end. The pool is managed by Inverclyde Leisure.
