Whitehall Swimming Pool

★★★★★Sean Duggan

The pool lining is firm enough to provide good fitting, but easy on the feet compared to the usual concrete. The zero-entry side of the pool worked excellently for easing my toddler into the water. Kiddy pool was oddly cold but bearable. Facilities were clean, although the men's side still accumulates water in various spots on the floor. The climbing wall, slides, or diving board are all quite functional and fun. Fair warning, the diving board still has some somewhat inconsistent rules about what you can do off of it. Like most pools, they prohibit backwards dives and gainers. Unlike many, and not listed on the signs, they will sometimes yell at you for doing backflips or twists. It seems to depend on the lifeguard.

Whitehall Borough’s NEW Swimming Pool is probably the BEST public swimming pool I’ve ever been to…Bring your own chairs though because the ones they provide go QUICKLY. They have spacious changing rooms/showers/restrooms, 2 Waterslides, a diving board, rock-climb that you climb and then drop into the water, a beautiful, shallow pool for the little ones that has a shaded tarp, overhead, 25-yard swimming lanes, various depth areas and a SNACK BAR that has a great variety of the things to eat, picnic tables included. This pool reminds me of one you would find at a Tropical Resort and is AVAILABLE for Whitehall, Baldwin RESIDENTS ONLY… Admission is FREE, this year for RESIDENTS…Just bring your ID and a piece of current mail to get admitted. Not sure when the last day of the season is, but I think they extended it for this year. IF you are NOT a resident, you can pay $5 admission. Have a GREAT TIME at this gorgeous, relaxing place!👍💞✨🌎😌😃🙌✨

It looks very nice, but even though it said it was open on Google Maps it seemed very closed to me. End of the season perhaps? Closed for repairs? One would think that there would at least be a sign.

Looks nice over all. There are life guards everywhere that rotate positions fairly often. However, the baby pool was designed with no consideration for function.. Please please add some heating. My toddler was absolutely shivering, even with his long sleeve swim suit, and it was in the 80s and sunny. Their lil bodies can't adjust to that as well as we can, and you can't reason with them to sit and freeze for a while to get used to it. Even we were really struggling with it. Also, the shade over the pool was not installed considering the position of the summer sun... In the afternoon, all of the shade was on the concrete on the end opposite from the zero entry.. Nothing over the pool itself. The smallest little ones especially need some shade, because again, their little bodies can't handle it. I hope these things are adjusted for next summer.

The main pool is great. It’s heated, beach entry, two big sets of steps, then the deep end has a diving board, two slides and a rock wall, lots of surrounding grass. Great if you have big kids. However, the baby pool is NOT heated. It’s pretty dang cold for a baby pool. Took maybe 20 min for my 15m/o to start shivering even though it was 85* and sunny. And there’s only 3 tables over there that even people without little kids take up. No grass or lounging chairs. It’s annoying that they stopped short on the baby pool after all the headache of the multi-year construction and all that $$$$$.
