30/9/2024

 
Janice you can indeed swim in Marble Bar. Both the Marble Bar Pool and Chinaman's Pool are suitable for swimming and picnicking. Though this time of year the water levels are falling and need a good flush out. "Local tip" pop into the Visitor Centre or the CRC when the VC is closed and get directions to Long Pool. great little swimming hole. Also the town pool has just reopened for the season...

Founded in 1893 with Gold in them there hills, Marble Bar has earned a reputation as Australia's hottest town. Consistently getting high temperatures during the summer months, it's not uncommon to see the mercury climb to over 38 degrees or 100 degrees Fahrenheit for days on end. Famously back in 1923-1924 achieving 160 consecutive days over 37.7 degrees... Now that’s “Hotter than a snakes butt”
