Beach swimming is popular and at English Bay and Stanley
Park, life guards are usually on duty. Watch for the red
flags; they indicate stormy currents and swimming is
prohibited. For year round swimming, there’s a good-sized
public pool at the University of British Columbia and the
impressive Vancouver Aquatic Centre under the Burrard Street
Bridge. Its Olympic size pool combines lane swimming and an
open area plus a separate diving pool with five board heights.
Good changing facilities; sauna and weight room. Swim times
vary and include family, adult and training sessions.
