The Swimming Bath of the Titanic was located on F Deck above boiler room 5. The room was for First Class passengers only. The Swimming bath was part of the Turkish bath complex.

The pool was open to women from 10 AM until 1 PM and open to men from 2 PM until 6 PM. Passengers had to visit the Enquiry Office on C Deck to buy a ticket.

The bath contained heated sea water and was only the second of its kind on any ship that was currently at sea. The first had been installed on Titanic's sister, the Olympic.

On April 14th, Colonel Gracie decided that he had neglected his health and spent some time in the squash court and the swimming bath. He went to bed early, intending on waking early to return to the squash court. Instead, he found himself in freezing North Atlantic.

Wreck

The condition of this room is unknown because of the watertight door that is closed along the bulkhead. Because of its location, it's probably in good condition.
