Big pools near Dallas?

[spector39]

Hi -
I'm just wondering where I might find some fairly large pools around Dallas where I can work on skills and get more underwater time. The place where I was OW certified has a small pool and although it's free to dive there, I'd like to find a larger pool and don't mind paying to get some more "leg room". I’ve been to CSSP a few times but looking specifically for a big pool in or near Dallas just for practice. Thanks in advance.

Thanks. I shold have been more specific, but was thinking more of dive shops with large pools around the area where I could also rent a tank and regs.

Scuba Toys in Carrollton or Adventure Scuba in Plano have decent sized pools.

The Denton Natatorium is huge. (15' deep)

Also Kirby Creek Natatorium in Grand Prairie is good sized.

Both will let you in to dive for a nominal fee during free swim times. I don't recall what it was in Denton, but Kirby Creek is $2.

I'm not sure what you call big but We Be Divin' in
North Richland Hills has an indoor heated pool.
