Aquatics

Our Aquatics program combines fun, fitness and safety.

Our sparkling 25-yard, 170,000-gallon pool plays home to water-loving swimmers with varying interests: those diving in for adult swim, parent-child swim, private and semi-private instructional swim classes — even pool party and school rentals.

Cautiously patrolling our pool decks, our instructors are alert, friendly and qualified. Our lifeguards are certified by the United States Swimming Organization and the Red Cross, and together have multiple decades of experience.

The pool’s schedule includes swimming information for swimmers of all ages, and features separate hours for men and women.

Interested in diving in? Bring a towel and a bathing cap. We have lockers of different sizes available for daily and permanent use.

Pool Q & A

What is the pool schedule?

Before you dive in, we ask that kids and adults familiarize themselves with our daily schedule and pool rules. Click to see schedule.

Are swim caps and showers required?

Yes. New York City’s health code requires all swimmers to rinse off before using the pool. Failure to do so jeopardizes one’s opportunity to swim.

The Center requires swimmers of all ages to wear a swimming cap. Swimmers
who don’t have a swimming cap available are expected to purchase one. (We sell goggles, too.)

Are there lockers available?

Lockers are available for the daily use of members, and are located in the first floor locker rooms. We strongly recommend that you bring a padlock or combination lock on the day of your visit to help keep your belongings secure. Locks must be removed before you exit the building. All unauthorized locks will be removed.

During the year, the men’s locker room is available at most times during the week, but is unavailable at these times — due to privacy reasons:
Mondays, 12:30 to 2:15 PM
(Used by our Early Childhood program)

Tuesdays, 12:30 to 2:45 PM
(Used by our Early Childhood program)

Wednesdays, 12:30 to 3:15 PM
(Used by local schools)

Can I rent a locker?

A limited number of lockers are available for rent on an annual basis. To secure your locker rental, contact our Aquatics Director at (718) 954-3162.

Rental Rates:
Small Locker: $6/month
Large Locker: $10/month
