The City of Pinole’s municipal swimming pool is located at 2450 Simas Avenue. The City’s pool has five (5) lanes and is kept at a comfortable 80 degrees.

The children’s pool measures 25′ x 25′ and is two and a half (2.5) feet deep.
The facility and pool offer amenities such as a handicap chair lift and full lockers to put your personal items and showers. Through a contract with the Pinole Seals Swim Club we offer, lap swim and recreational swim.
