Indoor Lap Pool
Our 3-lane lap pool is 25 yards in length with a depth of 3'6" in the shallow end and 5' in the deeper end. The lap pool is kept at 82 degrees and is used for lap swimming, swim lessons and swim team practice. Please look at the pool schedule for a complete listing of when the lap pool is available.

Lap Lane Rules & Etiquette
Lap lanes are used for lap swimming and programs only.Lap lanes may be used by members of all ages as long as they are consistently swimming laps. We ask that all members share the lanes with 2 people to a lane. If all lanes are full, it is courteous to ask a swimmer if they would mind sharing the lane before getting in to swim with them. There is a 30-minute time limit on using the lap pool when others are waiting. There is no diving in the lap pool except for supervised swim team practices.

Recreation Pool
Our recreation pool has a zero-depth entry with two large tunnel slides, a water-spraying whale slide for smaller children, deck sprayers, two water cannons, and a water-spraying coconut palm tree. The recreation pool is 4'6" in the deep end and is kept at 87 degrees. The recreation pool is used for free swim, swim lessons, birthday parties, Hang Time, water aerobic classes, and other programs. Please look at the pool schedule for a complete listing of when the recreation pool is available.
