Facility Notes
Swim caps are required. The pool is heavily used by clubs, for recreational swimming, and for laps. A lane schedule is posted in the lobby. The (usually two to four) lanes allocated for laps are not speed segregated and may be crowded during prime swimming times. Temperatures (air and water) are good for a workout. Men’s and women’s shower areas are side-by-side at the entry to the pool. Bring your own soap, shampoo, towel. There is a small pace clock that may be difficult for some to read.
The facility was formerly known as the Piscine Olympique d'Antigone.
Facility Reviews
The pool doesn't open until 9 AM and is always set to 50m.
There was no discipline in the four lap lanes open - people took the lane with the fewest swimmers. But even with five in a 50m lane, passing wasn't a problem.

This is a competition pool in abeautiful futuristic glass building. Hours during the week are 9 AM to 9:30 PM, shorter on the weekends.
This beautiful, state-of-the-art, partly open-air swimming complex is worth the trip to Montpellier alone. It's about as perfect as a pool gets.
This was everything I want from a pool. I went twice in the early afternoon; and all lanes were open to the public; I had one to myself about half the time I was there. Three lanes were reserved for swimmers with paddles/fins, though that wasn’t enforced. Like every pool in France, this one insists on tight-fitting swimwear and caps, but that shouldn’t be an issue for the audience of this site.
The place deserves better showers though. There are too few for a facility of this size, they’re in plain sight of whoever may be walking by and there’s a CCTV camera pointed at the men’s showers. Unsurprisingly, everyone showered with their swimsuits on, if at all.
