Top Public swimming pools in Queens, United States

The pool is great, but the changing room's maintenance is terrible. It is too small and dirty. Locker is small, too. No enough shower room, some of them even not working. No one comes to repair. You always need to wait on a line to get a shower. The park seems not to care about the changing room and shower room.

Pro: The pool is nice and big and clean. Some of the staff were really nice and respectful. Some were pretty unhelpful. Not crowded at all.

Cons:
Family locker room could be cleaner. Lockers are small and needed to purchase a lock for $10 on site.
Water was FREEZING. We were all shivering in the water for 30 mins before we gave up and left.

No life jackets allowed in the pool! And none in the facilities either! considering we were a family with small children, we were anxious that we weren’t allowed to put life jackets on our kids to keep them safe in the water.

Overall, this pool might be a good experience for adults or teens, but it just wasn’t family friendly for families with young kids!

Staffs are kind and nice. The center opens early in the morning.
Note: Before your first visit to pools here, prepare a personal lock (padlock or keylock or whatever) for a locker to keep your belongings.
You can also buy locks at Home Depot 5 mins away or at the equipment shop on the 1st floor.

Swimming pool is big, nice, lane length 25 meters, but crowded. In the morning at least 3 people in each lane, but the locker room and showers are disaster. In showers most hanging hooks and shelves are broken. Recently someone fixed half of the broken hooks. Why only half???? And why not shelves too???? You cannot regulate strength, direction or temperature of the water. Once you press the button, you have about 2 minutes of very hot shower which cannot be stopped. The locker room is similar story - 16 lockers were you can store coats and much more very small lockers where you can barely store a backpack, no coat.

if youre 18 to 24 this is a free swimming pool just for u. theres pool of different depths of how good u can swim. after registering dont forget to bring your own locker or u can buy 1 for 10$ from there. enjoy

Five Stars for Facility. Big size pool. Great workout.

Room to improve:
Bring back the cap rule. I see hair floating in water.
Bring back fast, middle and slow lane. You know your pace. Don’t lie.
Remind all swimmers/beach goers to place their slipper/sneakers near the wall area. Yes. They are dirty. Surprise!!
Stop spitting!
Please be mindful to your surroundings and let the fast swimmer go first. They are most likely ex-or swimmer wannabes They usually can’t see what is in front of them which may be a potential safety for slow swimmers.
Fix the shower room and increase the water pressure already.

Happy splash.

If the pool works - this is the Best pool in a city for water exercise for adults and senior citizens with professional trainer Mr. JUNIOR and missis Consuela.

ITS OPEN and free if ur under 24 years old , pool is 3 feet so keep that in mind and they only let u go in the 3 feet cuz the deeper sides are for the swimmers , THE MAIN ISSUE I had was the staff… to go into the pool u have to scan a little blue card they give u, the people that scanned mine were very very rude only cuz I didn’t have a lock (nobody tells u the rules or requirements but they expect u to know somehow) they laughed in my face and was rude both times that I went they acted like I was stupid and did the same to my friends and other people as well. So please remember that whoever u are going with (including yourself)NEEDS a lock if ur over 16-15years old u need one. And u cannot wear clothes or bring food, water or ur phone into the pool area, other than the rude staff everything was fine and I had a great time !
