Crystal Beach Aquatic Park

Opening May 23, 2025!

Constructed in 1938, Crystal Beach is an important piece of Madison's history, and we are proud of our endeavor to preserve the pool for future generations. 

The newly constructed Crystal Beach Aquatic Park preserved the "seashore" design while adding features that will serve individuals of all abilities: an activity tower for children, lap lanes, a lazy river, two slides, a diving board, a wet deck, chairs, and umbrellas.

Swim Lessons:

    • Level 1 - If your child is just comfortable getting in the water with the help of an instructor, this is the perfect place to grow!

    • Level 3 - If your child has gained some experience when it comes to swimming such as, floating, kicking and being able to hold themselves up (with some help from the instructor) and is eager to do more. This is the place for them!
