The swimming pool opened on 20 November 1989. It was built at a cost of £900,000.On 2 March 2023, it was announced that the pool would close on 16 April 2023 along with the Beach Leisure Centre following a £687,000 reduction in the yearly budget for Sport Aberdeen. The council stated that there were "significant issues" with the plant that would cost over £400,000 to fix. It stated that the site where the pool stands would be required for an expansion of Bucksburn Academy.
In December 2023, following a council consultation on the decision to close the pool triggered by the widespread backlash due to the pool's closure it was announced that the pool would reopen. Initially £1m was allocated to reopening the pool. In September 2024, an additional £1.1m was approved.
