Swimming Pools (Lap pools) in Doha??

By shortstop61

I have searched the forum but have not really found any definitive information for swimming pools in Doha. Most places I have checked so far seem to just have decorative pools. I have not found any good 25 meter  or 25 yard lap pools - 50 would be better but I am not hopeful.

 

Does anybody have any recommendations for good lap pools that are packed in the evenings? I don't really care about the other gym facilities, just need the pool fix every day.

 

Right now, I am staying near Al Jaida flyover but will be moving near the the City Center mall next month.

The ritz has a good sized pool if you can afford it and can drive that far out.

As far as I know Hamad Aquatics at Aspire is only for the swim team right now. They keep saying soon, soon, soon the public can join.

Out of curiosity do you really want one that's packed in the evenings, or is that a slip of the keys?
