AquaRec: Recreational Family Swim
Memorable Family Time In The Water, Fun For All Ages.
AQUAREC: FAMILY SWIM
AquaRec is AquaTech Swim’s curated recreational family swim experience, offering families a relaxed opportunity to enjoy time together in the water while reinforcing skills learned in lessons. Designed for swimmers of all ages and abilities, AquaRec provides a calm, supervised environment where families can connect, practice, and build confidence — all within the comfort of our purpose-built facilities.
Recreational Family Swim is offered as a reserved session to maintain a comfortable, well-managed pool environment. Families may enjoy the pool together during designated AquaRec times, with the expectation that parents or guardians actively supervise and accompany non-independent swimmers in the water at all times.
This is not a lesson or instructional class, but rather an opportunity for families to practice skills, enjoy movement in the water, and create meaningful shared experiences in a controlled setting. See our
Customer Resources Page for more information - View the
Facility & Customer Guidelines section for AquaRec specifics.

Family Participation
Purpose:
- AquaRec is a designated recreational swim time intended exclusively for families to enjoy safe, unstructured, and playful time in the water. To ensure a fun and secure environment for all guests, the following participation guidelines apply:
Family Participation Requirement:
- AquaRec is a reservation only program - no walk-ins allowed. See the Recreational Family Swim page for details and book directly through the Customer Portal.
- Children under the age of 14 must be accompanied by a responsible adult (18+) who remains onsite during AquaRec.
- Adults may not enter or use the facility during AquaRec hours unless they are accompanying a child (under 18).
- Children may only participate without a parent or guardian in the water if the following criteria are met:
- The adult remains onsite for the full duration of the visit, and
- The child is able to fully stand in 4-foot-deep water with their head above water, and
- The child can demonstrate basic water safety skills (e.g., float, swim independently, safely exit the pool), and
- The child is able to safely use the restroom and manage personal care needs independently.
Instruction-Free Zone
Instruction-Free Zone: To preserve the recreational purpose of AquaRec:
Outside swim instructors, coaches, or teachers—whether formally employed or independently contracted—are not permitted to conduct lessons during AquaRec hours.
Any form of structured instruction, organized training, or business-related aquatic activity is strictly prohibited.
Safety
Safety remains the foundation of every AquaTech Swim experience. During AquaRec sessions, AquaTech staff are present to oversee the environment; however, parents and guardians are fully responsible for supervising their swimmers. Children who are not independent swimmers must be accompanied by an adult in the pool.
These guidelines ensure that AquaRec remains a safe, respectful, and enjoyable experience for all participating families.
