Moree Baths and Swimming Pool, Heritage-listed swimming pool complex in Moree, Australia.

The facility contains three tiled swimming pools utilizing mineral-rich water naturally heated to 41 degrees Celsius from the Great Artesian Basin.

The pool gained national attention during the 1965 Freedom Ride protests against racial segregation policies that excluded Aboriginal people from public facilities.

The site represents a turning point in Aboriginal rights, leading to changes in public opinion and contributing to the 1967 referendum on Indigenous recognition.

The aquatic center welcomes 300,000 visitors annually and provides swimming lessons, fitness classes, and therapeutic mineral bathing services.

Natural artesian waters from underground aquifers maintain constant warmth in the pools without artificial heating systems.
