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For that reason, we ask for your help: If any of the information in the listing is incorrect, out of date, or could be improved, please tell us.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

There is also a 50m, unheated, ~20ºC (68ºF) outdoor pool and a diving pool at the Kaifu-Bad. This facility has a "rent-a-lane" offering that enables visitors to have their own private lane for a price.

Facility Reviews

Overall, excellent water quality. The outdoor pool has stainless steel walls and is illuminated at night. No lane markers were present during my visit in either pool.
I swam in all three pools and all were of excellent quality. The heated outdoor pool was very busy. Changing facilities, showers, hairdryers all very good. Superb value for money.
One of my favorite pools in Hamburg; I like the all-year outdoor pool and slightly lower admission prices. There is a lap-swimming lane outside.
I came here to do a workout prior to the Triathlon World Championship. The 50m pool has 8 lanes, but only the middle two were designated for lap swimming. There was no lane marker line between the two lanes designated for lap swimming and very little organization to the swimming. After the first flip turn, I found myself facing four people who were swimming four-abreast toward me. Most people stopped after every length which made the lane ends quite crowded. I was there on a Sunday and found the pool packed with thousands of people on the hills sunbathing. Not the best situation for lap swimming, but at least it was water!
