It's not easy to find information online about open lap swimming hours here, so I highly recommend interested swimmers reach out to the Club de Natacion Aquatigers (https://www.facebook.com/CNAquatigers and via email cnaquatigers@gmail.com). I was here in early 2022 and walked over one morning around 7 AM to see how I could swim laps. My Spanish is basically non-existent and their English wasn't much better, but they offered me access at 5:30 AM each weekday morning, so long as a coach was on deck. They introduced me to a coach and he agreed to this. The price was super-cheap at US$15 for 15 days. This is a gorgeous pool and the coach even offered me a pull buoy, kickboard and swim paddle options each morning. Highly, highly, highly worth the effort. If you speak Spanish, I'll bet it is even easier to work out a plan.

I loved this pool and being able to swim 50 meters without turning around! The ladies’ bathrooms are not so great, with only two showers and two toilets, and they're difficult to maneuver around in. But the pool is wonderful! I love swimming here. It’s worth the hassle of getting the documentation that you need!
I knew that in order to swim in any of the public pools in Panama City you have to have a card, and to get the card you need two photos and a medical certificate. I speak a bit of Spanish but not enough to be able to get the answers I needed about how to get them, so I went home, did some research, and translated my questions into Spanish.
Luckily, one of the ladies who worked at the pool, took me to a photo place and then to a clinic. You can get the photos anywhere that takes passport photos or bring two from home. (I got five for $3.)
We went to the “Clinica Revar Laboratorio” (just a short walk from the pool, at the intersection of the Avenida Central España and the Calle José Domingo Espinar - HERE on a map). All they asked was “Do you have asthma?”, they took my blood pressure, and then issued the certificate. It cost only $7.00.
Now I have a card and can access any of the pools in Panama City. Enjoy!
