Public Heated Pool in Area?

Is there a heated pool in the area (not needed now, of course) that is open to the public in or near SoWal?

Does the new Panama City Recreation Complex have a heated pool? Indoor or outdoor?

Thanks.
 
I just went online and saw that "Frank Brown Park" (which I think is on 98, probably about 10 miles from Rosemary Beach) has an "Aquatic center" opening up soon with olympic size pool and kids' activity pool. It doesn't say whether these will be indoor or outdoor -- or heated. Does anyone know what the plans are?
 
Not sure if it's heated or not, or what the seasonal hours are, but Freeport recently built a public competition-sized pool. I want to say it's on Hwy 20 behind city hall.

Fort Walton Beach YMCA is indoor and heated, but a significant hike from SoWal.

I think Destin Raquet Club and Recreation Services in Bluewater Bay allow you to buy a weekly pass to swim, and Bluewater's got a competition size pool heated and open as long as the air temperature is over 40F.

Unless something has changed recently, not much in the Panama City area. My triathlon friends complain that in order to get pool time, they have to sign up for master's swimming at Gulf Coast CC. (pool there is supposedly not open to the public otherwise)
