Manhattan Park

Fantastic way to be a guest at a clean, family oriented, calm pool overlooking Manhattan. There are a number of lounge chairs to use, with table and umbrellas if you wish. Their Rainbow pool art installation is just so pretty and their visitor fee is worth it for a could days in the summer, when you just need a pool. $ 35 weekdays, $ 50 weekends. They have a refrigerator for food if you want to bring lunch or water, everyone is very friendly and the pool is delightful. Did I mention it is on Roosevelt Island right along the waters edge overlooking Manhattan?
It is mostly residents, so it is definitely either an older crowd, or very young families with kids. I like this because I can just relax. The kids stay near the shallow end, and others near the deep end.
Highly recommend for a relaxing day in the sun.
