Such a great pool! Affordable, fun, diving boards, splash park, lounge chairs, grassy hills. Couldn't ask for anything more.

I come here for lap swim 2 or 3 times a week. The water is always beautifully clear, and it’s outdoors with a view of the sky blue with clouds and trees around. Today lap lanes 13 to 20 closed, so doubling up in lanes 1 to 12, but after a few minutes my wife and I found a lane together. Recreational pool open today too, full of children and parents, a few older kids using the diving board.

I do swim team and there are lots of lifeguards in training there which is a good thing because there is a 1 ft deep pool for baby’s which most pools don’t have or at least the ones I have been to

Questions & Answers

We live in Benicia. We have 11 & 12 years old grandkids coming to visit. Do you need reservations to get swim time? If so, what is the process?

No reservations. Just look at the website for family swim hours on the day you want to visit, or lap swim if that's what they want to do.

Just wondering: What was the reason that they got rid of the slide? It was in perfect condition, and it was one of the main reasons families go here.

Fiberglass slide needed replacing, and it no longer met state standards

Does this pool courteously post when closed in exception to normal hours? No it does not. It is closed today

Hi Mike. Though very useful, this Google business app does not allow us to display all of our various hours, as they change throughout the year. The best way to get our our accurate schedule for rec swim and lap swim is on the Parks and Community Services website at www.beniciarec.org. Our rec swim hours will start on May 3rd. Currently we are only offering Lap Swim hours; but you are correct that the pool was closed on Sunday in observance of Easter. We hope to see you at the pool soon!

Is it heated?!

Hi Malcolm. Here on Friday 26th April at 140 PM. Hours posted on webpage indicate open but it's not. I can see why others comment that the hours are "unpredictable"
