The City of Palo Alto offers Lap Swim year round at Rinconada Pool and during the summer months at JLS Middle School pool. JLS is open for recreation and lap swim from the third week in June through the first week in August annually.
Lap swim is a low-impact exercise for swimmers of all levels. Rinconada has 14 lap lanes, 25 yards in length that are designated by speed (slow, medium and fast). We offer early morning, midday and evening lap swim sessions for your convenience. Rinconada Pool is heated to 80 degrees.
