The First Colony pool is a 25 meter, competition-sized pool, with a shallow area, lap lane, diving well with two low diving boards, and a separate baby pool. Several canopies provide shaded areas to go along with the plentiful area for sunning. We have a beautiful brand new pool house with a snack bar, rest rooms, and changing rooms.
Location
The pool is located within the Greater First Colony park near the playground and clubhouse at 125 Pasbehegh Drive, Williamsburg VA 23185.
The traditional pool season runs from Memorial Day to Labor Day; however, efforts are made to open in weekends prior to and following the season. If this is possible, or if there are any closures for any reasons, please join and monitor the notices on the Greater First Colony Pool Facebook Page.
