Parc Jean-Drapeau has one of the finest outdoor Aquatic Complexes in Canada! In addition to the shade areas and water games that are accessible to everyone, the Aquatic Complex has three pools:
The large, gradual-slope pool is ideal for swimming and playing in the water. The bottom of the pool has a cushioned rubber mat for children's comfort and safety. The pool water is heated to around 27° Celsius once the nice weather arrives in May.
The diving pool includes all springboard heights and is intended for diving training sessions. The facility has springboards and diving towers of 1 m, 3 m, 5 m, 7.5 m, 10 m, and 22 m.
The international-calibre pool is intended for training sessions and sports competitions.
The Parc Jean-Drapeau team provides its clientele with a pleasant and safe swimming experience. Because the collaboration of everyone is essential, please take a few moments to familiarize yourself with the various rules and regulations in force our facilities:
Children under the age of 7 must at all times be accompanied and monitored, at a minimum, by a person aged 16 or over, wearing his/her swim suit, in the swimming area, based on the ratio below:
0-24 months | 1 adult / 1 child |
25 months to 7 years | 1 adult / 3 children |
Example: A parent who is alone, with two young children, is not allowed to enter the swimming area if one of these two children is under the age of 25 months old; this is in respect to the monitor-child ratio.
Due to reduced accommodation capacity, only two activities are offered to the general public in the recreational pool this summer.
Whether it's for a family swim, freshening up and spending some time lolling in the sun, or doing some laps, the Aquatic Complex's recreation pool has something to please every swimming enthusiast.
The 4 lanes of the recreational pool welcome swimmers who simply want to swim laps for training or pleasure. Consult the regulations and instructions.
