★★★★★Featured review by Marco Polo

This pool is open through a membership in the Long Beach YMCA for lap swimming. The Y also teaches swim lessons and there are other activities offered through the Y.

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families who are Long Beach YMCA members or plan to join, wanting reliable swim lessons and a clean outdoor pool through summer. The structured lesson progression suits children from infancy onward. Families after a casual drop-in swim without membership commitment will need to look elsewhere.

“I go there for Silver Sneakers through the YMCA on Mondays and Thursdays. You have to be a member of the Y to go to these classes. But the pool is nice with a large locker room with showers and changing areas. The surrounding area is big green and safe.”
