I am very pleased to see such a facility exist in El Paso and you can tell it is very well taken care of. The Westside Natatorium is accessible to the public and they offer public lap reservations, host competitions, team training, and they even help kiddos how to swim. The facility is setup with separate entries for spectator viewing and there are dedicated spectator bathrooms and locker room for those who are swimming. What really stood out to me is how they have an upper deck for spectators and there are plenty of rows for friends and family to watch. If you are interested in getting a swim workout in there are two ways to go about it. You can make a reservation ahead of time for a one hour session or you can roll the dice and simply walk-in. I have yet to make a reservation because the lanes are so large that it's pretty easy to grab a lane. Each lane is able to hold up to four swimmers. I've lucked out and have only had to share at most a lane with one other swimmer. Now when it comes to pricing you can pay for a swim session at a time, at the price of .... wait for it ... it's quite unbelievable ... for three dollars! You can also get unlimited swim for thirty days for only $30. read more

I have been going to the Westside Natatorium for almost two years now. Today I was approached by your manager, Cindy and told me I wasn't wearing proper swimming attire and I needed to wear proper swimming attire if I wanted to come back. Just because I don't wear the traditional bathing suit does not mean I am not wearing proper swimming attire. I wear the below attire, and as you can see it is swimming attire made out of spandex. Swim shorts and spandex are similar to what most men wear and what I see them wear every day except they are for women. I don't wear anything that is cotton like yoga pants or anything of that nature. The style I buy my swimming attire, I buy because I have to be protected from the sun and I can wear this for outdoor swimming as well. I don't usually complain as I know everyone works very hard and they deal with a lot of different people every day but as you know swimming attire is expensive and for someone to tell me it is not swimming attire was insensitive and very very embarrassing. I am not the best swimmer and I am a senior and I look forward to getting my laps in at least three times out of the week and today's experience was very demeaning. I am not planning on returning but I do suggest your managers and other employees become familiar with what "swimming attire" is these days. I have seen swimmers in your pool with wetsuits for scuba, but to me it is swimming attire and so never did I think my swim trunks and swim shorts were going to affect the chemicals in the pool to the extent that I had to be told not to come back if I didn't have the proper attire. read more

This aquatic center has two pools: the new olympic pool (opened April 7) and the old Leo Cancellare pool. The new pool is big, the water is a cooler temperature and it is deeper but had a shalow part in the middle. The old pool is smaller, water is a bit warmer, and shalow parts on the beginning and end. The building now has new locker rooms and showers etc. too. Bring: your own lock to shut the locker, shampoo/soap (no dispensers here), blowdryer if you need one (no blow dry machines). read more

Swimming pool was really cold and when you call they tell you it's 84 . They don't give refunds or a raincheck

Excellent pool facilities. Helpful staff. Outside picnic areas. Enjoy going to both pools. New pool has obstacle course for kids, my granddaughter really enjoyed it. read more

World class pool. Just wish they kept more lanes open more often. In addition to this much of the older staff (not the lifeguards) are incompetent. Happy to see El Paso moving on up read more

Great facility. One of the cleanest and nicest pools I have ever seen. Great improvement over all other options in town. Pools are kept at a pretty constant temp, which some may feel is a bit cold, but you don't want a warm water pool for workout or racing. Only down side is they limit the lane use in the large pool so sometimes the lanes get crowded for what seems to be no reason at all. read more
