A vision of what a rejuvenated Warrenpoint Baths could become has been unveiled.
On Monday, Warrenpoint Community Association (WCA) published concept images of what the facility might look like after its refurbishment, alongside a statement calling on the council to “prioritise the restoration of the town’s historic sea baths, positioning the project as a cornerstone in a broader cross-border regeneration strategy for the Carlingford Lough region.”
“The association urges councillors to actively champion this initiative, leveraging available funding opportunities to bring the vision to fruition,” it read.
Constructed in 1907, the Warrenpoint Sea Baths hold significant historical and cultural value. The association envisions transforming the site into a modern, heritage-sensitive facility, featuring an outdoor sea pool, wellness centre, and accessible public spaces for both residents and visitors.
