Important Notice Please Read

Swimmers Guide is not connected with any of the facilities listed on this site in any way. We cannot tell you the pools’ opening and closing times or when Senior Aerobics classes are held; we cannot tell you about the availability or cost of swimming lessons; we cannot get you discounted admission to swim at any of them; and we cannot help you find your children’s lost goggles or bathing suits.

We can and do try to give you reliable information about the pools, their locations, their admission policies, and their single-visit or casual swimming prices. Where possible, we include hypertext links to the pools’ own official websites and Facebook pages, clickable email addresses, and links to the websites of the clubs and teams that swim there. Look to those resources within each listing for more detailed information.

The data in the site is under continual review and is revised whenever the site’s editor becomes aware of a change, but, with more than 20,000 listings, a complete, periodic review of every listing takes about seven years to complete; in many places, prices will change four or five times before we have a chance to check the pool’s official website again.

For that reason, we ask for your help: If any of the information in the listing is incorrect, out of date, or could be improved, please tell us. There is an "Edit" button on just about every line of every listing, click on the edit button to tell us what needs to be changed. (No, it's not a place for you to ask us questions. What we have in each listing is the latest news we have.)

Also, please consider checking the listings of the pools you regularly use at home or when traveling, as your knowledge may be helpful to someone else who is unfamiliar with the area and visiting for the first time. Just go to the Add a Pool section of the site, read the first page, then fill out the questionnaire.

Facility Reviews

This is a beautiful facility and was very much needed in this area. It's great for families as there are multiple pools with areas for kids to play. The 50m pool is rarely kept in long course (only 3-4 early mornings per week) and usually either in two or three sections with one or two bulkheads. Usually laps are done in a 25m area and lanes are assigned for various speeds, but it must be said that this pool can be very busy, the swimmers seem to lack usual swim etiquette, and they don't seem to know how to manage swimming in lanes. Hence, slow swimmers end up in the fast lane and people move between lanes without any attention to oncoming swimmers, etc. If you can manage to go there on a rare quiet period though, the water is beautiful and there are large windows to the outside which makes this pool quite spectacular.
