Aquatics

The Duke Faculty Club offers many ways for members to enjoy the water. We have three beautiful and professionally maintained pools surrounded by a large deck area with lounge chairs, tables and multiple shaded areas. There is a snack bar that's open daily during the summer season which sells light snacks (chips, candy, pizza slices, hot dogs, ice cream, sandwiches, salads, etc.) and cold beverages (water and sodas). The Duke Faculty Club is proud parent to the Aqua Devils Team, a popular activity for members 4 to 18 years old.

With safety in mind, the big pool is fully staffed at all times by certified life guards. There is also a separate lap pool & toddler wading pool, which allows families of all ages to enjoy our facilities. The pools are opened from May through September with the big pool having extended hours from June through August.

Both private and group lessons are available for member of any age at Duke Faculty Club. This information is published every Spring, with limited enrollment for each class. Please see the Programs page for more information.
