Some of your favourite places to cool off are opening ahead of the weekend.
The Halifax Common Splashpad is now ready for the summer.
Meantime, the Bedford and Cole Harbour outdoor pools are set to open to swimmers as well, but remember you need to book your swim time.
Bookings can be completed on the city website. Memberships for Bedford Outdoor Pool can purchased through Lebrun Recreation Centre and for Cole Harbour Outdoor Pool they can be purchased through the Cole Harbour Recreation Centre starting Monday, June 30.
The outdoor pool on the common will remain closed because of the construction of the new aquatics facility.
In the meantime, beginning on July 1, you can go for a swim for free at the Needham Community Centre pool.
