Workout pool in La Paz?
Is there a pool at least 25 yards long in La Paz that one can do laps in? Gotta be one somewhere in that big city.

Blandra Bay is a little bit bigger than your request but it is about the same depth!!!

I've often wondered about this too. There is a sports club sort of thing on the highway between Chametla and El Centenario - on the left side of the
road when you are driving out of La Paz and going towards El Centenario. The sign says they have tennis courts and swimming (natacion), but I don't
know how big the pool is. That's the only place I can think of - perhaps someone from La Paz will chime in.

Congratulations on your promotion philo, stick with Nomads, there's more where that came from. I don't know about any pools in La Paz but they do have
a pretty nice bay.

There is a water sports facility. If I remember correctly, it's near Padre Kino y Alta Tension.

Thanks! I`ll check it out and report back when I get there. I do lots of miles in the Sea of Cortez but I like a good pool workout with no wetsuit or
jellyfish once in a while.
