Fort Bliss Community Pool

Positive experience: One would think that with the El Paso triple digit heat from Memorial Day to Labor Day weekends would make this pool warm and more pleasant, encouraging kids to swim for extended periods of time; fair warning. This pool is always quite cold and likely never over 76 degrees (disclaimer, no pool thermometer to confirm), many pool enthusiasts remark how cold it is and kids (and parents) who get cold easily will not last long. Also there is insufficient tables and chairs for families, yet plenty of room on the grounds to expand. Kiddie pool constantly appears out of order and it is disappointing that pool noodles are not allowed. Main water slide works well and lifeguards are tough, but friendly and accommodate to administer swim tests. You can bring your own food and non-alcoholic drinks. To the management, please invest in a heating solution; would be willing to pay more to enjoy the experience longer and more frequently throughout the summer.

Fantastic experience: If y'all are like me then you have questions. So hopefully I can answer some that you may have. You are allowed to bring a cooler packed with food and drinks. Just no glass items. You can't bring inflatables. A family pass is $35 for up to 4 and then it's $5 for each additional family member. Prices are really reasonable. For coming and enjoying the day. Hopefully I thought to answer any questions people were hoping to find.

Positive experience: Nice pool but the showers don't have hot water.

Fantastic experience: For a community pool on base, it was nice, available, friendly. Definetly what made my sons day, he just wanted to swim ????‍♂️ no fancy pants parks.

Positive experience: Pool breaks are longer than 15 minutes (amount of time they said it would be), water is always fresh and cool. Would recommend going earlier than later.
