Facility Reviews
This is a true class act. Must wear swim cap. BE SURE to get a token for the locker when paying admission. Having this "token" request written in French BEFORE you arrive may prove helpful. The slightly confusing locker room configuration becomes clear once you realize that first you change in a "changing room" (be sure to find the separate locking mechanism at knee level, as this is dual gender room) then exit the opposite side to find lockers. You need a token to lock the locker. Bring your own soap, shampoo, and towel. The 50 meter middle lanes had about 5 or 6 swimmers each at 6 PM... no problem.

This is a beautiful, clean, well-maintained facility with several basins: A child's play pool; a warmup pool (which is several lanes wide and striped but appears to be less than 25y and which seems to also be a family play pool/water exercise area); and a 10-lane 50-meter pool that was curiously divided into six 50-meter lanes and a two, four lane-wide 25-meter areas. It wasn't too crowded on a Sunday morning but there were no speed designations for lanes. Pull buoys and kickboards can be borrowed on deck. The water was a touch warm at 30ºC.
Instead of a token, a €1 or €2 coin also works for the lockers (it is returned after use). As in almost all French pools: there are mixed gender individual changing cabins; there is no nudity in the locker/showers; and swim caps are required (caps are for sale on site).
The pool is not in central Dijon, but is reachable by car or tramway.
