About Chapel Hill Aquatic Center
Chapel Hill's public outdoor pool often comes up when folks ask me about good spots in North Carolina. It's got a pretty solid 4.2 rating from over 160 reviews, which tells me people generally like what they find. For six bucks, an adult can get in, and it's even less for kids, just three dollars. That's a good deal for an outdoor pool, especially one with a diving board and dedicated lap lanes. Parents might appreciate the kiddie pool and the shade structures, which are key during the summer. They've also got concessions and a picnic area, so you can make an afternoon of it. With Chapel Hill being a town of about 62,000, I'm sure this pool sees its share of traffic when the weather's warm.
