Pool & Swimming Near Me | Bethesda | YMCA DC

Aquatics

Swimming is an important life skill, great exercise, and a challenging sport. So whether you’re looking for swim classes, you want to do a few laps, or enjoy a low-impact workout in the shallow-end, you’ll find what you’re looking for at the Y.

With two indoor pools and a large outdoor pool* that’s heated in the winter, YMCA Bethesda Chevy-Chase is a great place to take a dip, swim a lap, or build your swimming skills year-round. 

Swimmers under the age of 18 can join our Hammerheads swim team, and older individuals can join our Masters swim team.  The Y also offers adaptive swimming opportunities for those with a range of physical and intellectual challenges.

Combine friends and fitness during one of our aqua aerobics or aqua arthritis classes.  Or bring in the whole family for a game of marco polo.  YMCA Bethesda-Chevy Chase makes aquatics accessible and fun for people of all backgrounds.

*Important Member Update: The YMCA Bethesda-Chevy Chase outdoor pool will be unavailable from Sunday April 14th through Saturday, April 20th. Please click here to learn more.
