Hi Steve, Actually My name is Brian the photos I took of the the pool and the surrounding area are the latest , from what I can gather is it is fresh water but looking at the stream leading to the pool it will be some time before it is operational, Because phase 2 is planned to start in Janurary 2007 and going through to 2010. I cannot imagined that the streams will be fully operational until the development is finished , we will find out on my next visit early next year
