Centered in the famous ocean front Belmont Park, Fit Plunge is a 2 sided fitness building joined as one named ‘Fit’ on the South and ‘Plunge’ on the North. The 1925 historic ‘Plunge’ swimming pool, is southern California’s oldest and largest salt water pool holding 400,000 gallons of water and the centerpiece along with the Giant Dipper Roller Coaster as part of the original Mission Beach Amusement Center, now known as Belmont Park. Years later, the pool has been completely restored and the building was demolished and redesigned to be built out of aluminum and 40 foot glass walls, the historic pool and connecting Fit Athletic Club are now a totally unique and modernized fitness experience. The design includes multi-level decks with panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean and Mission Bay; a 2,500 square foot fully equipped functional fitness roof deck, hall of mirrors group fitness room reflecting the ocean from operable windows, integrated aquatic program, floating playground and a private VIP deck connecting the ocean front Beach House food and concert venue.
