About Quincie Douglas Pool
Quincie Douglas Pool is a City of Tucson swimming pool located in Silverlake Park. The facility offers a combination of recreational and competitive swimming amenities, along with water play features and a shaded grassy area. Its design includes a 25-yard competitive course, beach entry, and spaces intended for both lap swimming and recreational use.
The pool features eight lanes and supports adult lap swim and recreational swim activities. Its beach entry provides a gradual way into the water, while the pool's water toys add another option for play. The facility also includes a separate splash pad, giving families and other visitors a space designed around spray and splash activities rather than traditional swimming.
A central attraction at Quincie Douglas Pool is its 144-foot-long water slide. The pool also has spray and splash features, extending the range of water activities available at the park. The City of Tucson's pool listing notes that both the water slide and splash pad are currently closed for maintenance, so visitors should check the latest pool information before planning around those features.
Swimming instruction is part of the pool's programming through swim lessons. The facility also provides a setting for adult lap swimming and recreational swimming, reflecting its combination of structured aquatic activity and open-use recreation. The competitive course and eight-lane layout offer space for swimmers using the pool for fitness or practice, while the beach entry, water toys, and grassy area support a more relaxed visit.
Quincie Douglas Pool maintains posted rules focused on safety and cleanliness. Visitors are asked to follow safety regulations, use rescue equipment only for emergencies, and avoid running, pushing, and boisterous play. The rules also prohibit glass, pets, smoking, and food or drinks other than water in the pool area. Swimming is not permitted during lightning storms, and guests are expected to use showers and restrooms before entering the pool. Diving is allowed only in designated areas, and appropriate swimwear is required. The pool's website also offers email updates about closures and requests for information to help the City understand how it can best serve visitors at this location.
