About

Kingfish Aquatics, located at 1151 Scott Lake Rd, Waterford Township, MI, is an indoor aquatic facility dedicated to providing year-round swim lessons, competitive swimming programs, and various aquatic activities for all ages and skill levels, focusing on water safety and aquatic fitness.

The main teaching pool at Kingfish Aquatics is generally maintained at a warm and comfortable temperature, typically around 86-88°F (30-31°C), which is ideal for swim lessons, especially for younger participants and those learning.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? This aquatic facility is highly regarded, especially for lap swimmers in Metro Detroit, offering extensive hours seven days a week. It features two pools: a lap pool designed for racing and diving, and a shallower 3-foot pool, catering to both serious swimmers and families with swim lessons available for all ages. The facility is consistently praised for its cleanliness, balanced water, and a professionally run environment with attentive, friendly, and respectful lifeguards. While it can experience crowds during late mornings and club team practices in the late afternoons, there are typically open lanes, and the shallow pool provides ample space. Pricing is affordable, with a discount for Waterford residents. Operating hours are comprehensive but vary by season and location (Mott/Kettering pools), with some midday closures during the school year due to school programming. Overall, it's considered a valuable 'great resource' and 'best kept secret' in the area.

It’s a pool. Not much here. Two pools. One lap pool and one for others(3 ft). Little humid. Water was about 60 degrees. Setup for diving and racing. About 6 open lanes. Clean. Life guards on duty! Balanced water. Recommend. $7 for Waterford residence and $10 for others.

Excellent opportunity for lap swimmers. One of the very few locations in metro Detroit which offers lap swimming 7 days a week. Opens 5AM M-F, Sat 7AM, Sun 9AM. Attentive Lifeguards on duty, friendly, helpful, respectful staff who monitor for rule enforcement. Professionally run organization. Maintained facility. One of the areas affordable, best kept secrets. 🤫 🏊‍♂️

Lot of great hours for lap swim, gets a little crowded late morning and then has their club team splitting lanes at 4:30/5:30 pm. For non lap swimmers the shallow pool has tons of room. The fitness center seems more open in early afternoon hours than the morning.
