Housed in the Lakefront Arena is the UNO Aquatic Center, which holds an Olympic-size 50-meter swimming pool (the pool is adjustable to a 25-meter/25-yard setup) with lockerrooms and a sauna.

During the summer of 1997, a new 25-meter, six-lane outdoor swimming pool opened next to the arena which accommodates the swimming program. 

The facility was shutdown due to Hurricane Katrina and re-opened in the fall of 2009. Amongst the upgrades are a new videoboard, amongst the finest in all of collegiate swimming.
