An ideal plan would be to visit public pools during the week instead of weekends as this will reduce crowding levels significantly. Furthermore, many pools close for cleaning or annual maintenance on certain days; it’s wise to check their website beforehand and stay updated! Also keep in mind that many public pools provide lockers where you can store belongings – they usually cost $5 but bring $10 just in case!
