    Is there either a public swimming pool in Killarney or a hotel pool that allows the non-guests in?

    Yes, There is the Aura sports centre on the supervalue side of the bypass. Probably tour best option

    We take our toddler there and he loves it. There's 3 pools, a baby pool which is about 1 ft deep, a learner pool which is about 2 ft deep and an adult pool which is 20 - 25 metres in length. Prices are quite reasonable as far as I know.

    There are a few other options in Killarney, some of the hotels have been offering non-guests access to their pools. We called a few of them when we first started taking our toddler but their prices are generally much higher than Aura.

    Yup I go to Aura. (now called Killarney sports and leisure centre). Only thing is it can get busy. There are often school groups/swimming lessons going on. Here is a timetable.

    I got to the Castlerosse, on the Fossa side of Killarney. Usually very quiet there. Has a 25m pool and a small kiddies pool.

    Both the Aura and Castleross are outside town though. If you want somewere in town the Towers across from Cinema accepts non-guests for around E9.
    At least it did last year.
