Palm Desert’s 8‑acre aquatic park features two pools, shade structures, and a main building with multiple changing rooms, offices and a concession stand. A lighted, 50-meter x 25-yard competition pool is shared with the College of the Desert and provides a venue for regional meets. For family fun, an 8000-square-foot recreation pool features waterslides, play equipment and a wade-in entry. Arch Pac conserved the existing date grove on the site by incorporating it into the parking lot design.
