It is located south of Tsui Ping Estate and is close to Kwun Tong and Lam Tin stations.

The old Kwun Tong Swimming Pool, built and originally managed by the Urban Council, opened on 25 July 1971.

The Royal Hong Kong Jockey Club donated HK$5,410,000 toward the construction of the swimming complex, which was located immediately north of the current pool.

[2] In 2000, the Urban Council was disbanded by the government, and management of the swimming pool became the responsibility of the newly formed Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD).

[3] The Leisure and Cultural Services Department applied for funding in 2009 to build a new Kwun Tong swimming pool on the old site of the Kwun Tong Recreation Ground Football Field, which was constructed by Gammon Construction[4] and was opened on 1 April 2013.
