Shiraishi Heated Pool | 白石温水プール

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For that reason, we ask for your help: If any of the information in the listing is incorrect, out of date, or could be improved, please tell us.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 convenient, though somewhat crowded, and chaotic 25m pool. It seems to be mainly geared towards water aerobics and walking, though there usually seem to be at least one or two lanes available for lap swimming.

When I visited, a few lanes had been combined to make one, large, undivided lane for lap swimming. There didn’t seem to be any organization, and no one was circle swimming—everyone would just swim one length, turn around, and then swim back without trying to run into someone. Needless to say, there were a few collisions

Overall, besides the chaos, the pool wasn’t too bad. The temperature was great, and the staff was friendly. The pool appeared clean, though the water was a little cloudy.

When you arrive at the facility, you’re required to take your shoes off before entering the building. You then purchase a ticket from the vending machine by the front door (cash only). The staff at the front desk are helpful and guide you if you’re not sure what to do. Once you get the ticket, you can then get a locker for a nonrefundable ¥50. Swim caps are required, and no personal items (including water bottles) are allowed by the poolside.
