NYC Public Pools Open
It's finally time for FREE swmming at the neighborhood pool as the NYC Parks Department opens its outdoor pools on Thursday, June 27, the day after public schools end for the summer.
See a list of NYC public pools. Most are open from 11am-7pm daily, weather permitting, with an hour-long closure from 3-4pm each day for cleaning. Call ahead to verify hours and read our post about public pool rules.
