About James Island Recreation Complex Pool
It's an outdoor spot, so you'll want to hit it when the weather's good. They've got a lap pool, which is nice if you're trying to get some real swimming in, but also a splash pad and waterslides. That tells me they're set up for families, not just serious swimmers. It's in Charleston, a city of about 150,000, so it's a decent size operation. People seem to like it based on the 4.3 stars from 178 Google reviews. I know a lot of pools, and that's solid. They offer daily admission, which is good if you're just visiting or want to try it out without committing to a full season pass. Picnic areas too, so you can make an afternoon of it. It's a pretty standard community pool setup, but with a few extra bells and whistles like those slides.

It's located at a recreation complex, so there's usually parking. However, on really busy summer days or during peak times, it might be a bit tighter. I'd still plan to arrive a little early if you want a good spot.
