An entirely natural swimming pond with fish, turtles, kingfishers, pond herons and you. We're open for day use and the quarry is pet friendly too. To reserve a spot for day use you will need to pre-book here.
There's several filtration methods we use for the quarry. From bio-filtration with over 300 plants, to charcoal and sand filters. The water is tested regularly and topped up daily as we use the quarry water to keep our two acres lush except in the monsoon. We add sea salt, bio enzymes and natural algaecides to further keep it clean. Alum is used on the rare occasion that the water has become cloudy, however this is done scientifically and does not harm the fish or you. Daily Ph, TDS and other data is updated on the board outside.
There's over a 1000 fish in the quarry. From guppies, Mollys, koi, catfish, goldfish, guramis, tetras and more. Turtles do occasionally jump in here from the fish pond adjacent to the quarry for a dip. But they make their way back. Most of the fish and wildlife are extremely shy and tend to go into their safe area which is a non swimmable thicket. Kingfishers and Herons do their daily rounds and dive in or just strut about keeping the fish population in check. We do not interfere with the wildlife and the fish feed on only what's in the water.
The Quarry is made of locally sourced stones so it has rough edges and can be sharp on corners.
At a depth of 5 feet across in the adults section and 2 feet in the kids section, it is not safe to jump or dive into it lest you hurt yourself.
The pool is natural and maintains a temperature of 26-32 degrees in summer and 24-28 degrees Celsius in winters.
The fish may tend to nibble at dead skin if you're absolutely still. They are harmless. You cannot play with the fish or take them out of the water in jars or containers.
The Quarry is open from 9am to 6pm daily and is shut on Tuesdays for maintenance. The Quarry is open for hotel guests on all days except on Tuesdays between 8am to 12pm.
Kids under 5 and Pets can use The Quarry for free for day use guests. Hotel guests have no charges whatsoever. As there are no lifeguards on duty, kids under 14 and pets cannot be left unsupervised at The Quarry.
As this is a natural swimming pond, there is no way you can enter it with sunscreen, face or body creams etc. Showering before use is a must and that goes for pets too.
The fortune of those who are sitting, sits; it rises when they rise; it sleeps when they sleep; it moves when they move. Therefore, wander.
