    Went there last Saturday and the pool was dirty, full of leaves and algae on pool walls, it is not…read morenormally like this, I said something to person at front they said they will tell someone. Not very good customer service on weekends. At least they gave my money back when I refused to swim in those conditions. Please do better, this is great community pool and we need it kept clean and safe for everyone!

    One of the best aquatic centers I've ever had the pleasure of going to. Upon entering they were…read morealmost at capacity but we made it in. To my surprise capacity is not a large amount of people so it was very spacious and comfortable in the pools and sitting on the patio furniture. The daily admission is $3 for adults and $2 for persons 17 years old and younger. This includes access to the children beach pool/slide. They also have a lap pool with swimming lessons offered. This aquatic center is amazing because they have a section with beach entry great for kids. There are mushroom fountains and other fun features for all ages. Yes my fiancé even loved those fountains and reminded us of our childhood. My toddler absolutely loved it. They also have a slide which you can take your toddler on as long as you hold them. I also felt extremely safe because there were more than 3 lifeguards working. Everyone who worked here was very friendly and took their job seriously. I give this Center 10/5 stars!!

    This public pool was renovated back in 2022, updating in many ways the original 1960s design with…read morenew locker rooms and other improvements--a new waterslide was also added in 2023. The pool itself is large and unless swim meets are underway, the majority of it is for open swim most of the time. Two or three lanes are normally reserved for lap swimmers as well but for me, as a diver, my main attraction is the dive well. The pool has a dive well which is connected to the rest of the pool but normally cordoned off via the swim lanes. There are two 1M and two 3M springboards and these are open to the public if dive practice or other events like artistic swimming practice are not taking place. There is also a dive tower with 3M, 7M, and 10M platforms but this is only accessible for dive teams and other serious divers who have authorization--as a diver who has used it I very much appreciate its presence because 10M platforms are very, very, hard to find outside of universities in the US. (For other divers, yes, I know the heights are weird and 5M and 7.5M are standard today--I don't know why the two lower platforms are strange heights.) So, to recap, plenty of American public pools have removed even their 3M springboards for liability and other silly reasons and yet here we have, in Gainesville, springboards and even a tower. In fact, all three our Gville public pools have both 1M and 3M springboards which is insanely good fortune. I don't think Jax or Orlando can even claim this. Beyond diving, it's simply a really nice pool: they play great music over the stereo, the lifeguards are in my experience all super-chill, super-competent, folks and you see everyone from swim teams to older serious swimmers to kids splashing around having a grand ole time. This is one of the real success stories of Gainesville's parks and rec programs in my view.
