On your travel / tour of Japan through Shimane 島根, Sanintabi! recommends taking a break at one of the Matsue's 松江 marvelous Swimming Pool プール Onsen / Hot spring 温泉 recreational resorts.
Hotland Yakumo ホットランド八雲 is located in the southern part of Matsue 松江 in Yakumo Town 八雲町 next to Kumano Taisha 熊野大社 and is a joint Onsen / Hot spring 温泉 and recreational pool プール facility.

There are yearly memberships available, but normal entry price is 1000yen for adults and this includes towel hire. It is a swimming complex that is unisex unlike Onsen / Hot spring establishments and swimming wear must be worn at all times.
Like all recreational pool facilities it is recommended that you shower before you enter the pool area. There are showers in the locker room with soap and shampoo/conditioner. When you enter the pool area you will be faced with the Onsen / Hot spring pool and two Jacuzzis either side of it. There is a Kake-yu 掛け湯station so you can pour warm or cold Onsen / Hot spring water over your body to climatise yourself to the heat and to clean your body before entry. They also have pressure shower stations for the same purpose. To the right is a 25m pool and a small wading pool for children. Floating devices and kickboards are available to use free of charge. There is a water slide that is a lot of fun for adults if you’re not too embarrassed to try it. To the left are two saunas, a dry sauna and a mist sauna. Directly outside the saunas is a cold water plunge pool. There is also a walking pool with a rock floor that is thought to be therapeutic. At the far end are deck chairs for relaxation with Japanese newspapers provided. There are soft mats for stretching and a television. Next to the entrance to the locker room is a water fountain and cleaning stations to rinse your eyes. Sanintabi! highly recommends rinsing your eyes after exiting the pool at any recreational facility.
