depth of pool, deck 13, Queen May 2

[Marcys]

Does anyone know the depth of the pool on deck 13 of QM2? I have hip exercises and walking laps that I would like to do on our Jan 3 TA to keep my hip limber.

Yes, that splash pool on Deck 13 is hardly a pool at all . Can get your feet wet at best. Deck 13 on the QM2 is where it appears Carnival Corp ran out of money or ideas to put things ;) Lots of empty deck space with a bar & snack bar that are hardly ever open it seems to me.

I think I will be limited to spa and deck 13 since TA in January will be cold, heated pool or not!

Use the Pavilion Pool on deck 12 as it is covered. The access to the Spa pool involves purchasing a Spa pass which are roughly $35 per day.

Thanks! I meant deck 12!

Hey Cap'n. Can we negotiate a deal on the Spa for multi access? We have a lot of sea days coming up. I think you're the expert here. :p

Thanks! I meant deck 12!

 

Deck 12 Pool is deep enough for swimming, 5' I think.

It's always too windy to use deck 13

And during transatlantic crossing the bar is never open

I still don't understand that wading pool.

No, I live on smaller feet:D

1.25 m I think. I should have a photo of this pool somewhere

I am actually not interested in swimming. I need to walk laps for my hip. Being 5'3", I don't want the pool too deep. Chest height is perfect. With it being January, my two choices will be the spa or deck 12.It sounds like the depth of deck 12 is a bit better for me. And, it would be great to watch the ocean while doing this.

Indeed! Thought it was the daftest thing I've ever seen tbh, complete & utter waste of space.

 

Fewer people seem to use the lower, aft pool - which on our trip in April had no children around it. That was ok for a quick swim.
