Two arenas in one, the adjacent building is only for ice skating if swimming is not your thing. The main reason I chose this place-for my 6 year old son-besides the ones mentioned above was because they offer diving lessons. You can't find this at just any swimming centre. The place is equipped with a pool for this purpose, several diving boards at different heights and looks like they're ready to train olympians. I made the last one up but I don't see why not tho. Parking on weekends could be a challenge. Even though they have a decent parking lot but the amount of people they get here could be overwhelming sometimes. Locker rooms are ok but could be a bit bigger. Perhaps they didn't expect to receive this much crowd when they built it. Swimming areas usually swarming with kids and parents on the sidelines watching their little ones, yelling, shouting sometimes, encouraging them. It could get noisy but all fun and action. All in all, I'm satisfied with this centre, it does the job and more for me. Until our Laval aquatic centre is up and running next year (hopefully), the Lavalois will have to make little trips around the town for this purpose.

Down side not much place to hide from the sun, food not allowed around the pool and sad plain concrete around the pool. Also for adults the pool can get a bit boring after a while. Kind of boring when not in the water. I think it's also some sort of a pick up spot - but of course, like any pick up spot in Montreal shy and quiet, you'll get back home the same way you came. If you come with kids there's also a nice green park nearby and thanks to the city of Montreal for the high parking fees as usual. Not much else to do around at the end of the day, if not chasing the marmots in the grass!

The change rooms are kind of dark though and the showers are right there out in the open which is a tad odd. Adult swims at noon are perfect for laps and there is plenty of room for lots of people at what I think is a fairly steep price though: $5.75. I like the pool itself a lot, but would pick the free Laurier pool over this pool more often than not. My biggest complaint besides the price though? The life guards were annoying and confusing absolutely everyone by blowing their whistles every couple of minutes. People would stop, look around, wonder what we were doing wrong only to realise that it was the teenage girl lifeguards whistling at friends to bring them something or to get their attention...don't do that!

Best of all FREE entrance…read more It also has a large green space with mature trees providing plenty of space to set yourself up under the shade if you don't want to tan. They don't have a lot of lounge chairs so come early to grab one but they are cool if you want to bring in your own lawn chairs. I usually come early, get a swim in, and then chill out on a lounge chair and catch up on some reading and phone calls. Also, this is very family-friendly and folks of all ages are here, elderly, kids, couples, singles, I never seen sketchy types here. Great spot to try to beat the heat.

It features a few hockey rinks, a wonderful pool, a multifunctional indoor soccer centre and a gymnastics centre. The pool is amazing as there is open family swim times on the weekend with a pirate ship (with water cannons) water is always 85 - 90F in the beach-kids area. Then they have another swim lapping pool and diving area where you can practice your flips, cannonballs and jackknife's to your heart's content (just don't piss off the lifeguards!). On the weekend there is always lots of hockey going on and gymnastics lessons. There is also a Tech-Gym attached and a restaurant and bar upstairs that you can have a few drinks or chicken wings while watching your son-daughter on the rink!

We visited the Montreal Olympic Swimming Pool and Olympic Parc on a full day tour of Montreal…read more It was super cool to see and hear about the construction of the facility and the pool for the 1976 Olympics. It's inside the giant, leaning, Montreal Tower, which in itself is really neat to see. In the Olympic Pool area, there is also a small museum too that covers the 1976 Olympic Games. On our tour, the guide explained to our group how the pool (and other smaller pools) were built for the swimming, diving, and other water sports. The pool is still used for recreational swimming by the citizens of Montreal, which I appreciate that they found a new use for it vs. tearing everything down and building over the site.

Coming here was the highlight of our trip to Montreal and if you like to swim I would definitely…read moreput this on your itinerary. Why? In 1976 the Summer Olympics were held in Montreal and this facility which is still in the same state as in 1976 with the Olympic rings outside the door was built for the swim competition. Now you have the opportunity to swim in the same pool as the Olympic Athletes. Canadians can buy monthly memberships but Americans can swim here for a daily fee of less than $8.00 CAD with a passport and proof of double vaccination. They even have the viewing stands so bring some friends and family with you to cheer you on like in the Olympics. The pool is super clean--the cleanest I have ever seen. And so are the locker rooms and showers. I had googles on and dove to the bottom a few times and it was cleaner than any pool that I have been in. You are required to keep a face covering on all times walking around except in the pool. ( I got reprimanded initially by the lifeguard for walking near the pool without one.) There are lanes for laps, a kiddie area, and free swim area. There are 2 lifeguards on duty on both sides of the pool. They even have a machine in the locker room to dry your swim suit--worked great! There are open lockers but you will need to bring a lock--we just used our small suitcase locks--it seems relatively safe when we were here. They have benches next to the pool for your towel and things. We took a Uber here from the hotel but if you are driving, park in P5 lot. Give yourself a few hours to come here because if you are not familar its a maze of Olympic buildings and once inside another maze figuring out how to get from the locker room to the pool without walking though another gender's locker room. I had to consult with other swimmers and such nice people in Montreal--they gave me an escort. Just a tremendous experience and we are thankful to the Montreal people for allowing us to "jump in."
