Rose Bowl Aquatics Center

"Back in 2009, when I was eight years old, this was one of the first places where my father taught me how to swim. What a fun pool, and very big. I had some great times here when I was younger. The only funny thing is, there was a middle-aged man with a suntan and wearing sunglasses who used to walk backwards and glide for exercise all around the edge of the pool in a full circle for hours, and he used to ram into us by accident without looking, and my father used to tell the guy to stop, stop, stop! It's still funny to this day. Anyway, I had lots of fun here when I was a kid."

"A lifesaver. Community hub & elite competitive swim facility. The pool has rec or family swim hours for non members. For that people need to line up & its first come first serve, which gets busy in the summer especially, and is not as seamless as it would be if you were lap swimming or what have you as a member - hence the poor reviews you may see. Be kind to staff and any people of color you see in the pool, there are a few entitled elders here who still think pools should be segregated. Other than that silliness, a perfect place for all."

"This facility offers numerous programs for people of all ages. They have a great club swim team program. The facility is well kept. There is plenty of parking."

"The Rose Bowl Aquatics Center in Pasadena is a fantastic facility for swimmers of all levels. The pools are clean and well-maintained, providing a refreshing experience. The staff is friendly and accommodating, ensuring a safe and enjoyable environment. With a range of amenities, including diving platforms and a fitness center, there's something for everyone. The picturesque location adds to the overall charm of the center. Whether you're a serious athlete or simply looking for a place to relax and swim, the Rose Bowl Aquatics Center is a wonderful choice."

"Bring your kids here to swim and improve to a competing level or parents can just come here to swim when time allows. This place has been around for a long time so feel safe bringing your kids here. Overall would recommend it. For some it may be pricy but well worth the money if you want your kids to get interested in something other than just gaming. These pictures were taken in late November 2021 and the water was heated at 8AM hence the steamy pool. I'm a General Contractor and my company is at InnovativeConstructions.US. I try to provide information to anyone who can use it. Hope they help. Maybe let me know your thoughts."
