The Parish Council Pools are located on the outskirts of Avis, in a space that transitions between the town and the rural landscape of Alentejo. They are situated next to a large garden area, offering direct access to well-maintained grass where you can lay out your towels and relax in the sun.
The tranquil surroundings are characterized by the presence of cork oaks and pine trees, which create a pleasant contrast with the blue of the pools. On a clear day, the reservoir that bathes the region can be seen in the distance, reinforcing the feeling of contact with nature.
The complex includes a main swimming pool of generous dimensions and a children's pool equipped with colorful slides, ideal for the little ones. The sun umbrellas and outdoor showers ensure comfort, while the level access makes the space accessible to all ages.
The blue-painted concrete bleachers and walkways clearly delineate the bathing areas, facilitating circulation by the water. Next to the support bar, there is a small shaded corner, perfect for those seeking shade without losing out on socializing.
The surrounding silence is only interrupted by the chirping of birds and the gentle murmur of leaves in the wind. This natural harmony provides a refreshing refuge on hot summer days.
In addition to direct contact with the water, the surrounding green space invites short walks and moments of contemplation. The presence of native trees creates spontaneous shaded spots, where you can enjoy the Alentejo landscape in complete serenity.
