A month long swim pass is available for $25, saving the regulars a couple bucks/month. You dont have to be a student, they dont check IDs, and paying is typically by way of the honor system. Because of classes, water polo, and whatever else they do here, the pool is only available for "open lap swim" during limited hours, which is my only complaint. On the other hand, they are open all damn day, so thats a plus. Early mornings are usually not overcrowded; afternoons get busier, often requiring swimmers to share lanes; and i have yet to swim here in the evenings. Its an outdoor pool, and the summer weather on campus is nice, so ive been using this place up like no other. Fall (open-lap swim) pool hours: Mon - Fri: 6:30am-8am; 12pm-1pm Mon - Thur: 7pm-8pm

I informed him that "I was going to contact the City Council Member". He said, "So what, he's Mexican too". Now I swim at the YMCA in Lakewood only. It's really sad, I live in Long Beach and can't swim laps there because the music caters to Hispanics only. If you had a meeting in their conference room with all the other swimmers, you'd be surprised that I am not alone in this matter. There are a lot of White Americans, African Americans, and only a few Latino swimmers who swim from 6:00 - 7:00 a.m. This review is long overdue. I still have a lot of money on my Long Beach pool card, yet I prefer going to the YMCA at Lakewood.

This is an outdoor pool located at the McGaugh Elementary School in Seal Beach. It is an "L"…read moreshaped pool. It is a very small 25 yard pool with six lanes. The person who told me about the pool told me that there are some very serious swimmers that use this pool. When I came here the other day at lunchtime, each lane had 3 or 4 swimmers in each lane. The swimmers here all knew each other and seemed to have good swim etiquette. Every lane had fast swimmers in it. They would've given me a serious workout if I had swam here. Swimming here is difficult. It is a cashless pool. I was told by the lifeguard that she could not accept my money here. In order to swim here, you must go to Community Services department of the Seal Beach city hall to obtain a card. They have swim passes of 16, 34 and unlimited swims, or if you are like me and don't want a swim pass, you could load up your card with a couple of dollars at a time. The lifeguard told me that a single swim is $3. Even though I had my swim workout earlier in the day, I was hoping that the lifeguard would allow me to try it out. But no luck. They have various hours that they are open for lap swimming. Monday through Friday from 5:30am to 7am, 11am to 1pm, and again from 6:30pm to 8pm. On weekends they are open from 8am to 12 noon. The pool looked older and a little beat up. I didn't see the locker rooms. I don't like pools that are crowded. But, this would be a great place to swim because of the serious swimmers here. I'm willing to pay, I don't like jumping through hoops for a pool that I would hardly ever use.

The construction over by Orlena Ave is a big bummer, as it prevents us from completing the trail loop. We just walk from Appian Way up the lagoon crossway, north on the path until we hit 6th St., then turn around. From there, one could take a left on 6th St., then a right on Federation Drive to extend the walk, but it's still not a loop. Regardless, it is a nice area and the view of the water along the path is a peaceful sight. The sandy beach of the lagoon has always been populated with lively children and teens in the water when we've gone, so that spot in particular is not so peaceful. Also, if you're taking your dog, we've seen a man twice with three huge, off-leash dogs on the corner of 6th St. and Monrovia Ave that take over that whole grassy area, so beware of that. Otherwise, there's sometimes a group doing yoga there.

Signing up for a session was easy, but the time slots were all during the day, Monday through Friday. Since I had Monday off, I was able to take up the offer. When I met Genesis, she asked me a few questions to get an idea of how regularly I work out and what my goal was for this session. I shared that I run and workout 5 days a week and was seeking new things to try since I do the same thing all the time. I also wanted her to check my form as I was pretty sure I was doing some things wrong. Genesis understood the assignment and put me straight to work! She modeled every exercise so well and was great about correcting my form. She also observed that my left foot/leg seemed dominant, which it is for snowboarding and skateboarding. She was very knowledgeable too, answering all my questions with excellent explanations. Loved her positive, encouraging energy. I would take another coaching session with Genesis in a heartbeat when my schedule allows it!

Now for the gym. I don't know what their parking situation regularly looks like but I will never be coming back due to this. I had to park in a garage connected to the place then trek out to find the entrance which is not easy to find. You have to make she to validate the parking I believe but the worst part is that when you come back to the structure you need a 4 digit code to enter through a side door. I didn't know this and had to walk all the way back just to get it since they weren't able to give it to me over the phone. Don't even get me started on the construction which I hope clears up. Cuz that makes the entire arrival and leave experience such a burden. And I don't think this is in their control but it truly impacts their experience in It's small. This gym feels like they decided to cram it in a place that will make you feel like the ceiling is caving in. When I went inside they were sorting all the aluminum cans from the garbage by the stairs. And honestly this was nasty. It smelled and made traveling up stairs not great. And you need to cuz I think that is where the locker rooms are at. The AC was not working or maybe it was too crowded they couldn't get it any type of cold. The layout is not easy to access. I told myself I would try a few more locations and I have. Check out those reviews too but from how hard it is to park and how crowded it can get with such a cramped gym you should consider going to other 24 hr gyms in the area. I truly reccomended the Lakewood Mall 24hr over this one in every way.
