Barcelona Olympic diving pool on Montjuic hill Barcelona. Open July and August. Full name is Centre Esportiu Municipal Piscina de Salts de Montjuïc (CEM). The Olympic diving pool in Barcelona was designed by Antoni de Moragas in 1992 for the diving events of the Barcelona 1992 Olympic games.

It has a seating capacity of 4.100 spectators and the panoramic views of the city provide a unique backdrop for diving events. In the summer the pool is open for swimming only.

The Olympic diving pool was designed as a competition pool, so it is not part of a sports centre and there are no fitness facilities. The changing rooms are 20 years old now and could use a renovation.

The swimming area is open only from June to end August from 11am to 7pm - and only the swimming pool. Note that entire pool can be closed for competitions.

The diving pool and boards area are closed to the public.

Sunbeds can be rented but bring a thick towel to lie on in case there are none availabe.

There is a small pool-side kiosk, where you can buy refreshments.
