LA fitness, prov and Pawtucket line on North Main st. The best part you can swim basically all the time. Whereas with others such as the YMCA, you only have specific slots of time to swim. I think it opens at 5am and during week closes at 10pm. It's never really crowded. At most, I may wait 20 minutes to grab a lane, which is rare.

Brown, CCRI in Lincoln and RIC have pools, Brown has the best, but time slots are limited, and Brown is really pricey.

Also, in the late spring people start preparing for the bay swim. You may ask around on it, but there was a group that swam all the time in Jamestown to get ready at potters cove. May be other groups too.

la fitness has classes that use the pool. You have to check the schedule.

Barrington beach has a group that preps for triathlons as well as GeorgiaVille pond. There is a swim group on face book you can join (https://www.facebook.com/groups/GVPNadadores)

As far as I know, post pandemic, the one in Prov at the moment has no classes.

You're welcome. Good luck. My nephew did several triathlons. Awesome sport.

I love the YMCA, but between their scheduled class times, kid's swim clubs, the occasional lightning storm, and their pool chemical issues, they're never open.
