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For that reason, we ask for your help: If any of the information in the listing is incorrect, out of date, or could be improved, please tell us.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

A large salt-water pool in a picturesque setting right on the beach. When I was there, both the 40 and 50 meter sections were partitioned into slow, medium and fast lanes. The water was very clean and a great temperature; courteous swimmers abided by the designated lanes speeds. A locker facility with showers is available nearby for a nominal additional fee. I was advised that it’s only busy before 8 AM. It was a fun to do a lap-swim in salt water. I enjoyed the added buoyancy as a novelty.
In the evening there are often five or more swimmers per lane.

Goggles are a must because of the salty water.
[March, 2014]
You don't get much for the price, although a clean facility and clear water do count for something. The locker rooms have additional fees for the lockers (small cubes) and are a short walk away from the pool through a public thoroughfare (bring footwear and body covering if modest or in chilly weather). The water can be on the cold side and, as mentioned, SALTY. Clean hot showers with good water pressure are back in the locker rooms. In all, a great 50m pool; but expensive (about US$ 20.00).
[December, 2017]
This pool has 50m lap lanes and 33m lap lanes. The water is cold (75º - 76º F. [24º C.]), which is refreshing, but the water is VERY salty. The pool is expensive (21 USD) and, although lanes were marked, lap lane etiquette was lacking.

It has a nice view of the ocean, but the lockers are inconveniently located outside the pool area and are not free.
