Are Family Swim Times Crowded?
No. We're not sure if family swim is under promoted or if certain locations don't get much traffic. Often times one family can have the entire pool to themselves.
If you like this list, you'll probably love our calendar. It features free (and close to free) things to do in Boston. And if you're interested in free lessons, we list some here.
Until next time...
