POOLS
Our complex houses four pools:

NOTE: We require that street shoes and boots not be worn on the pool deck. For health and cleanliness reasons, preschoolers who are not toilet-trained must wear specially designed swim diapers or swim pants. Disposable diapers are not permitted.

George-Gate Pool

Our 10 lane 50 meter pool is 1 to 3.8 m in depth with a movable wall that allows the pool to be divided in half.   The dive tower has 3m, 5m, 7.5m and 10m platforms as well as 2-1m and 2-3m springboards.  The water temperature is approximately 27.2oC (81oF).

Our 25 yard pool is a warmer and shallower pool used mainly for teaching and therapy type courses. The water temperature is approximately 30.5oC (87oF) and it is 1 to 1.2 m deep. Removable stairs are used during adult swims for those needing extra assistance to enter and exit the pool. A small slide, rope swing and pool toys are available for everyone to enjoy during Funtime swim.

WEIGHT ROOM

Weight room

Our air-conditioned weight room has a wide variety of cardiovascular and weight-training equipment. All of our weight room monitors are certified personal trainers who are capable of demonstrating proper equipment usage and will also design safe and effective exercise programs upon request. Entry is restricted to those 16 years and older, without exception.

MULTIPURPOSE ROOMS
There are two multipurpose rooms which are used for various fitness classes and lectures.

SAUNAS
There are two saunas – one located in the rear of the men’s locker room and the other in the rear of the women’s locker room. Saunas are available during regular public swim and weight room hours only. Entry is restricted to those 16 years and older, without exception.

CHANGING ROOMS
For your convenience, we have a large selection of changing rooms including facilities for women, men, boys as well as families. The family changing room is intended to accommodate parents and their young children. Lockers are available in each changing room (users to supply their own locks). A limited number of coin operated lockers are also available (½ locker = $0.25, full locker = $0.50). Small individual security lockers are located on the pool deck for a fee of $0.25. The Pointe-Claire Aquatic Centre is not responsible for lost or stolen articles.
