About Northwood Aquatics Center
If you're looking for an outdoor pool in Irvine, Northwood Aquatics Center is usually a pretty good bet. It's got a 50-meter pool, which is great for serious lap swimming. They offer lessons and water aerobics, so there's usually something going on even if you don't want to just swim laps. It's year-round, which I always appreciate since so many public pools shut down for half the year. The Google rating is a solid 4.4 out of 5 from over 300 reviews, so most people seem to have a good experience there. Lap swim is five bucks a session, and they have passes if you plan on going a lot.
