About

Clean area for toddlers and littles, plus a main pool and a splash pad for kids.

As an outdoor public swimming facility, Battery Park Pool is generally unheated. The water temperature is subject to natural fluctuations, primarily influenced by the ambient air temperature and prevailing weather conditions during its operational season. Specific temperature readings are not typically published for this type of pool.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? This swimming facility is generally described as a very clean and pleasant place, ideal for summer refreshment and families with children, offering a free splash pad. The staff is often praised for being friendly, and the surrounding neighborhood is also considered nice. However, some visitors have noted strict and at times frustrating rules, such as certain types of goggles (those with nose pieces) and swim shirts not being allowed. There have also been instances where limited lifeguard availability led to restrictions on swimming in the deeper sections of the pool, even for adults who know how to swim.

A very pleasant place for summer refreshment, the staff is always very friendly and lovely cultural people who come with children, very clean and pleasant place, we've been there several times, I recommend it. A bike ride from the Fan area to there is a small mini trip. Thank you ♡♡

The neighborhood is very nice, so is the staff, me and my friend went last Thursday and now we’re going tomorrow (Monday). Small tip: when going there, if you want to wear goggles, make sure they don’t include the nose piece. Me and my friend went there with those sort of goggles and they aren’t allowed. It’s a great pool :)

I will say it was clean. But. Only one lifeguard on duty, which meant I was not allowed to swim in one section of the pool. I'm an adult and I know how to swim, but I couldn't in the "deep" end. Six feet max. But I also couldn't when there were 40 kids in the shallow area. 🤷

The power tripping lifeguards wont let you wear a swim shirt while you swim, because it "will mess up the pool". I literally wear this shirt to every pool, including this one...

My kids love this place . They also have a splash pad within the pool area and it’s FREE.
