Swimming & Water Fitness

James City County offers a variety of swimming and water fitness classes for ages 1 month to adults. Individuals who will be participating in a Dolphin Swims class will not need a swim evaluation and can sign-up for group lessons at any time during the registration period. The current group swim lesson flyer and monthly water fitness calendar are located at the bottom of the aquatics webpage.  Classes are held at the James City County Recreation Center.

James City County Parks & Recreation has three affiliate group swim teams. Williamsburg Aquatics Club, Coast Guard Blue Dolphins and 757 Swim teams all use the indoor pool for training year-round. No swim meets are held at the indoor pool. For practice times, see the monthly pool calendar below.
