Natural sodium-chloride water is drawn from depth and fills both indoor and outdoor baths with panoramic harbour views. The juxtaposition of industrial port scenery and steaming open-air pools is uniquely Kobe. The facility's modern design and central location make it equally popular with tourists and exhausted Kobe business commuters unwinding after work.
