For those who are looking to go swimming in Cape Coral and/or register children for swim lessons, there are a few locations within the Parks & Recreation Department that offer this form of leisure including:

Sun Splash Family Waterpark:  Sun Splash, located at 400 Santa Barbara Boulevard, includes over 14 acres of exciting tubes, tunnels, slides, pools, and fun for all ages.  This regional water park is open seasonally March through September and is a perfect place to beat the heat and make a splash. The park offers daily admission, season passes, birthday parties and group outings, plus learn to swim, junior lifeguard, and water safety programs every summer. For more information and hours of operation, visit www.SunSplashWaterpark.com or call (239)574-0558. 

Yacht Club Beach:  Located within the Yacht Club Community Park on the SE corner of Cape Coral at the end of Driftwood Parkway, the Yacht Club Beach is the only swimming beach in Cape Coral. This public beach is open from dawn to dusk; however there are no lifeguards on duty so those who wish to go in the water should understand that it is a “swim at your own risk” beach.

Yacht Club Community Pool:  Also found within the Yacht Club Community Park at 5819 Driftwood Parkway, the Yacht Club Community Pool features a heated Olympic size pool and kiddy pool with interactive Dewdrop fountain and underwater bubblers.  Fully trained lifeguards are on duty during the pool's operating hours, and various aquatic programming is offered throughout the year including water aerobics, swim lessons, junior lifeguard camp, synchronized swimming, and special events. Daily admission or a season pass is required to use the Yacht Club Pool, and this facility is also available for parties and private rentals. For more information, call (239)542-3903.

Please Note: Alcoholic beverages are not permitted in Cape Coral's swimming areas, parks, or on the beaches.
