Seattle Parks and Recreation 2023 Summer Pool, Spraypark, and Beach Hours

Whether you like to lap swim, dunk, dog-paddle or wade, Seattle Parks and Recreation (SPR) has dozens of ways to hit the water this summer in the pool or at the beach.

Although SPR is still in the midst of a national lifeguard shortage facing many park agencies, the following sites will be operational this summer while two pools, two wading pools, and three beaches will be non-operational until there is sufficient staff to maintain safety ratios.

SPR encourages the public to please share lifeguard job opportunities with your networks.
