Stade Nautique d'Avignon

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For that reason, we ask for your help: If any of the information in the listing is incorrect, out of date, or could be improved, please tell us.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

The facility was designed in the 1960s in the tradition of renowned French architect, Le Corbusier. The Stade Nautique d’Avignon was declared a heritage building to preserve it as a stunning example of 20th century architecture.
There is also a 15m x 15m diving pool with 3m, 5m, 7.5m, and 10m diving platforms.
The 25m, 8 lane, outdoor pool that appears in the Google Maps satellite view photographs appears to have been converted to a leisure pool in the renovations that led to the facility's reopening in 2019.

Facility Reviews

This is a nice pool, with good attendance on the morning of December 24th. There were four lanes set up with ropes, though not of the „wave breaker“ type, unfortunately. The water was 27ºC; so I had a good swim.

The lockers operate with a code system.

The pool is at the St. Chamand tram stop, the end of the line of the one and only tram line in Avignon (the stop is on the opposite side of the street, you can't miss the pool). It's just 15 minutes from the central railway station, which is just outside the city walls.
