MCRD San Diego Pool

"I failed swim qual four days in a row. On day five, the last day, they just made us tread water for thirty seconds. We all passed."

"The lifeguards can be a bit surly and demanding, and not friendly at all, but they know what they are doing. As long as you follow their instructions and keep quiet, you are good to go. I mean admission is free, so what do you expect. You get what you pay for."

"Great staff that really care about training recruits and Marines. I would suggest everyone attempt their qualification of intermediate swim."

"The staff that worked there were very polite and there hats they were were so cool! Seemed all of them were wearing the same uniform and were tight to thier body. The pool was a bit crowded and showers were a bit cut short due to overflow of customers there.Overall I wouldnt go back there despite the life changing 3 month vacation i took there."

"The water was cold, and the swimming area is a tad bit crowded. A great place to learn how to swim. I witnessed first hand how easy it is for the instructors to resuscitate drowned victims."
