CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — The Corpus Christi Parks and Recreation Department has announced its summer schedule for pools and splash pads, running May 30 through Aug. 9, 2026.
The department says total operating hours across all city pools and splash pads are the same as last year. Each facility will also have designated closure dates for routine maintenance to protect the health and safety of patrons.
To respond to drought conditions, the department implemented water-saving measures at all pools and splash pads. Those measures include a solar shield water additive to minimize evaporation and pool covers to further reduce evaporation when facilities are not in operation. The department says the measures are expected to save up to 95% of water use, exceeding the water curtailment goals outlined in the city's drought contingency plan.
