About Van Ness Pool
If you're in Los Angeles and looking for a public pool, Van Ness Pool is worth checking out. It gets a 4.5 out of 5 stars from 88 reviews on Google, which is a pretty solid score for a public spot. The hours shift around a bit, but during the week they usually open up around noon or 2:30 PM and close at 7:00 PM. Weekends are a shorter window, 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM. It's operated by LA Parks, so you know it's publicly run. Call ahead if you have questions, their number is (323) 218-7161. I always tell people that for a city the size of L.A. (around 3.9 million people), having good public pool options is a big deal, and this looks like one of them.
