Avid South Coast swimmers are concerned at the deplorable condition of the Olympic pool in Margate.
“The Olympic pool is in an appalling state and requires urgent attention from the municipality. Even worse, it has been like this since November last year. I suggest that officials take a walk about the pool and surrounding areas,” said a regular swimmer.

The swimmer said that the Marburg swimming pool is well-maintained and that the ‘municipality should take a leaf out of its book.’
“The pool has not been back washed since last year which makes it unhealthy. I would hate to think what our holidaymakers feel about the South Coast, as a local I am ashamed and embarrassed.”
The municipality was contacted for comment but none was received at the time of going to press.
