It doesn't seem to be near anything, except the St Michel flea market. I's free!

He willingly went under water several times, and refused to get out even with his lips quivering. The Aquadome in Lasalle was amazing. There are slides for kids of all ages, (Liam was obsessed with the one in the baby/toddler area), and a neat umbrella which was his second favourite spot. The room for the party was spacious, yet simple. You can buy bathing suits and floating devices at the front desk and there is also a snack bar with tables and chairs in a separate area away from the pool. We didn't try the food since the party had its own food, but it looked amazing. The family changing area was great- quite a few stalls, several changing tables for little ones and many bathrooms, all of which, were very clean. You can tell the garbages are changed frequently. I was told the separate male only changing room was larger than the family one, but I obviously didn't see the inside of it for myself. The life guards do their jobs well and ensure a safe environment. They have their seats but also stand at different points around the pool so there are several vantage points. We will definitely be going back.

I googled "things to do in Montreal" and this came up. The photos made it look like an indoor…read morebeach! There was lots of parking and this place is open very late as family swim ends at 8:45pm here! However, I think they could do better. The locker room had dirt and hair all over the floor and oddly enough there were no hooks next to the showers (unless you count the moldy benches but I didn't want to place my stuff there) Once we got into the pool, I immediately noticed that the pool floor was slimy and grimy. I've never felt that before and figured it was chlorine maybe? When I got home and googled it .. it turned out to be algae and a sign that the pool is poorly maintained. They have 3 slides, the large main one was broken and the 2 small ones were open. So, I asked the lifeguard if I could put my 3 year old son on it and she said sure just catch him since he can't swim. I went to catch him as he came down the slide and he went so fast it felt like a blow to my chest. You'd think the lifeguard could have warned me how painful it would be to catch a small child off of one of these slides! The complex that this place is in seems interesting. They have a badminton room and indoor rock climbing. I might come here to check out more activities but no more Aquadome for me! Also, I went off hours, pretty late on a weeknight, and the place was still pretty crowded. I can only imagine how hectic it gets on weekends. Way too many people. I saw several employees just walking around (not even lifeguards) and I think they should have been testing the water quality, mopping the floors, and cleaning the pool. Things that clearly needed to be done but weren't.

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."

The interior screams for updating, but you get what you pay for.... the locker room is usually clean-ish, and the lanes in the pool are wide. During a "free for all" slot in the schedule there are no lanes, and they have a rope across the width of the pool, making it less convenient to swim. I have been coming here regularly for more than a year, but last winter I had the misfortune of having my locker broken into. I lost some valuables then - and so I recommend leaving your phone and wallet at home before coming here. Anyone can walk off from the street and enter, and they don't have cameras. A lock is no guarantee for safety. When it happen, the staff was quite helpful, and they let me use their phone to call and cancel my credit cards etc. I kept coming here afterwards, and it's all good since. Check the website for the updated opening schedule, as it changes seasonally.

Club PKL is a very nice pickleball facility located in the sud-ouest near downtown making it one of…read morethe most centrally located , and closest to the downtown core, pickleball clubs in Montreal. The facility is very well lit, has high ceilings and a good amount of space around the courts. Again making it one of the best facilities around. They have 6 playable courts and one training court. Although they advertise having 7 courts, you can't actually play a match on the 7th court as it has a very low ceiling. However, this court is good for warming up or drilling. As I've mentioned this facility is top notch. However, one thing I've noticed after playing there a few times during the summer is that the main area is not properly ventilated. I can see that they have large heaters in the space so I'm sure it is fine in the winter, but it appears to lack an adequate amount of fresh air circulation. So when the facility is full the air becomes quite humid and hot. The office area and fitness studios are in a full air conditioned area so there is no issue there. It is just the playing area that seems to be lacking in fresh air and air conditioning. Lastly the one major down side with Club PKL is the pricing structure. It's next to impossible to figure out and what I can figure out seems extremely expensive. Looking at the Play by Point app, Club PKL offers no less than 11 membership options. ‍ when you click on memberships on their website all you get is a list of hourly court fees of $64 or $72/ hour depending on the time of day. So the website isn't really very useful in helping you figure this all out. The way it works is that you pay for a membership, say $110/month for then"rock star" membership, which I figure must be the best one and then you pay court fees as well. For a "rock star" the fees are the lowest, $12.50/hour/player (assuming 4 players per court). So by my calculations if you play on average 3 times per week it would cost you over $5,000 per year to play pickleball at PKL. They are however very flexible when it comes to drop ins for non-members. I've seen last minute open play invites for as little as $10 but also for as much as $35, so it all seems pretty random which makes it a bit difficult to plan in advance.

Centre Pickle is one of the great new indoor pickleball facilities in town. They have done a nice…read morejob with their facility and the owners seem to be very in tune and responsive to the needs of their customers. They often send around questionnaires and survey and are very open and responsive to feedback. They have already announced some updates and improvements which are a direct response to the feedback that people have provided. The facility itself self is very new and clean. Like any indoor facility some of the courts are a bit tighter than others, but it is pretty easy to adapt to and none of the courts that I've been on are overly tight. One major plus at Centre Pickle is their coaching and clinics. They have a relationship with Elite Pickleball who offer excellent coaching and clinics at the center for players of all levels. The only downside to Centre Pickle is the location. They are in the east end in the back of a warehouse and it's a bit complicated to get to, particularly insuring rush hour. Also, be sure not to wear your court shoes as their parking lot is shared with a lot of truck traffic and it is very muddy and dusty.
