Here Are All The Public Pools In L.A.
(Photo by tanngrisnir3 via the LAist Featured Photos pool on Flickr)
Los Angeles gets some 284 days of sun a year (the rest of the US averages 205), and we're not about to waste it. Add to that our average temperatures for spring and summer in the high 70s to mid-80s, and it seems obvious that Angelenos are always at the beach or near a pool. So what are you to do if you don't have a pool in your backyard, or live steps away from the Pacific Ocean? No worries, we've got you covered. Here's a list of all the public pools in the L.A. area:
