Important Notice Please Read

Swimmers Guide is not connected with any of the facilities listed on this site in any way. We cannot tell you the pools’ opening and closing times or when Senior Aerobics classes are held; we cannot tell you about the availability or cost of swimming lessons; we cannot get you discounted admission to swim at any of them; and we cannot help you find your children’s lost goggles or bathing suits.

We can and do try to give you reliable information about the pools, their locations, their admission policies, and their single-visit or casual swimming prices. Where possible, we include hypertext links to the pools’ own official websites and Facebook pages, clickable email addresses, and links to the websites of the clubs and teams that swim there. Look to those resources within each listing for more detailed information.

The data in the site is under continual review and is revised whenever the site’s editor becomes aware of a change, but, with more than 20,000 listings, a complete, periodic review of every listing takes about seven years to complete; in many places, prices will change four or five times before we have a chance to check the pool’s official website again.

For that reason, we ask for your help: If any of the information in the listing is incorrect, out of date, or could be improved, please tell us. There is an "Edit" button on just about every line of every listing, click on the edit button to tell us what needs to be changed. (No, it's not a place for you to ask us questions. What we have in each listing is the latest news we have.)

Also, please consider checking the listings of the pools you regularly use at home or when traveling, as your knowledge may be helpful to someone else who is unfamiliar with the area and visiting for the first time. Just go to the Add a Pool section of the site, read the first page, then fill out the questionnaire.

Facility Reviews

Didn’t swim any laps here, but it has great indoor/outdoor play zones for all age kids + adults. Great tube slides, wave pool, assorted sprayers, typical Dutch snack bar. Attached to a major water-sports training center.
I cannot fault this pool; it’s beautiful and has 50-metre lanes available every day. There’s a schedule of session times and pools on the website.

The competition pool is available every weekday from 7AM (the turnstile opens at 6:55:45 AM... I am not kidding....). On weekends swimming is typically available only in the training pool, at set times.

There is a fast lane but the lifeguards don’t enforce it - it’s mainly down to swimmers being sensible. But it has decent width lanes, so it isn’t a problem. Afternoons are busy with sessions available only in the diving well, as the pools are overtaken with squads.

The facilities are clean, with communal showers just off the pool. There are lockers available, but most people just leave their clothes in the changing rooms (a corridor of about 16 rooms that alternate male, female [and sometimes there is a sign on the door saying if the room is allocated to a club or the public]), and take their bags poolside. There is plenty of bike parking, naturally, and there is a carpark just beyond the pool. (At the moment there is a CORONA Testing Station in the carpark, too).
