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For that reason, we ask for your help: If any of the information in the listing is incorrect, out of date, or could be improved, please tell us.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

Daikanyama Sports Plaza is cheap and the facilities are fine. The staff is fine too. Lap discipline is well taken care of. The pool is occasionally full because there are some classes held. There is a schedule at the reception desk. It is normally not full after six. The pool is cleared a couple of times a day for 10 minute sanity checks.
I have visited this pool several times over the last few years, when visiting Tokyo. I agree with the previous comment - it's very decent for lap swimmers. Expect to share the lane with one or two more swimmers. There are two pace clocks, conveniently located, and kickboards and pull-buoys are available.

The water is not too cold.

The Daikanyama Sports Plazas is easy to find; it's only a one-minute walk from Daikanyama Station on the Toyoko Line; it's the first stop from Shibuya Station.
[December, 2018]
This pool is excellent for serious lap swimmers: unlike many pools in Japan, lanes are labeled by speed and the crowds were very manageable on a weekday early evening. The locker room is clean but sparse. Staff has instructions in English. Keep your ticket to show on the way out: if you stay longer than 2 hours, you'll have to pay extra.
[January, 2019]
The pool tends to be quiet between 1 and 3 PM on weekdays, but can be crowded on weekends. Passing in the lanes is not permitted, but people are courteous and will wait at the end of the pool to let you go ahead. There are ten-minute breaks every two hours or so, where everyone has to get out of the pool. The water is warm, as is true for most Japanese community pools.

Be sure to bring a swim cap and to cover any tattoos with a bandage or rash-guard/leggings. No smart watches or rings are allowed.

Buy your ticket at the vending machine and make sure that you keep it, as you give it to the attendant on your way out. There are coin lockers that you can use with a ¥100, returnable deposit.

The sports plaza is literally right across from the Daikanyama train station and a ten-minute walk from Ebisu station.
