UNLV SRWC Pool

UNLV's Student Recreation and Wellness Center pool, listed as UNLV SRWC Pool, offers swim instruction and open swim for kids and teens ages 5 to 18 at 4505 S Maryland Pkwy in Las Vegas, zip code 89119. Programs include youth group swim lessons, private swim lessons, adaptive swim lessons, lifeguard training, and open swim, run in an indoor pool with locker rooms, certified instructors, and lifeguards on deck.

Adaptive swim lessons stand out among the offerings, and the listing confirms this location is special needs friendly, with adaptive sports, adaptive recreation, and inclusive programs listed as specific accommodations. This makes it a notable option for families looking for swim instruction built around a child's specific needs rather than a standard group format only.

Hours are 6:00 AM to 7:00 PM Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM Saturday, and 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM Sunday, giving families both early weekday access and weekend windows for open swim or lessons. The facility operates year-round. The price range is listed at $$, and no specific per-lesson cost is on file, so families should call (702) 774-7100 or visit unlv.edu/campusrec/aquatics for current pricing on group lessons, private lessons, and open swim access.

Lifeguard training is also offered on site, which is worth noting for teens in the 13-18 bracket looking for certification or a path toward a lifeguarding job rather than swim instruction itself. Because this is a university recreation facility, families should also confirm whether community access requires a guest fee, a membership, or is included in the listed program pricing, since that distinction is not specified in the directory. Overall, the combination of certified instructors, adaptive programming, and a wide weekly schedule makes this a broad option for swim-related activities across a range of ages and needs.

Families choosing between group lessons and private lessons should ask staff which format best fits a child's current comfort level in the water, since the program offers both formats side by side rather than requiring one before the other.
