I have a friend who is there for spring break and asked me if I knew of a public pool for her to use this week. I live in Northern California and have no clue. Does anyone know where she can go to get her swim workouts in this week?
She can try Corona del Mar High School and/or Newport-Costa Mesa YMCA.
The 24 Hour Fitness at Lakeshore Towers has a 25m outdoor pool and you can sign up for a 7-Day Free Membership
It’s located at:
18007 Von Karman Avenue
Irvine, CA 92612
(949) 250-4422
Hey…I just found this website http://www.aquatica.com/v/placestoswim.htm
Except for it thinking the Santa Barbara is 2.8 mi from Newport, it looks like a pretty good resource.
Thanks to both of you - she is going to use the YMCA pool.
Its been a few years since I worked at that pool, so maybe things have changed. you might have to buy a pass to swim there during the “lap swim” hours. I don’t think they have a masters program or a swim coach. Nice pool though, If you see a stocky asian fellow in a janitor’s uniform say “Hello”. Howard acts strangely similar to the janitor on “scrubs”.
