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For that reason, we ask for your help: If any of the information in the listing is incorrect, out of date, or could be improved, please tell us.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

A clean, bright facility.
On a Sunday morning, I found the 'regulars' very accomodating of this English speaking stranger.
In my experience, this pool is always very crowded. It's not very big - five lanes, but there are usually only three lanes with lane dividers and the other two are connected into an "open swim" section. Of the three lap lanes, two are usually used by schools and the remaining lane is designated "Swim Superhighway" (not kidding!). This lane tends to be Olympics-level swimming - quite aggressive and ruthless. So the so-called open swim section tends to have swimmers of all levels and speeds: from super slow floaters to quite fast lap swimmers (the spillover from the superhighway lane). I swim here most times when I'm in Berlin because it's the only pool I can get to based on where I usually stay and work in Berlin - but I find it pretty stressful swimming here. You spend a lot of time negotiating the traffic, doing lots of zigzagging and slaloming... If you are able to get around Berlin more, the 50 meter pool at Tiergarten is a much nicer swimming experience.

I enjoyed an early morning swim here in the fall of 2022. Five lanes were set up for lap swimming, with maybe 2-4 of us in my lane at any given time. Folks seemed to sort themselves out reasonably well in terms of speed.

You pay at the front desk and are given a disposable card with a QR code to enter and exit the facility. Various swim gear is also sold at the front desk. Remember to remove your shoes before entering the locker room area!

The pool is advertised as open between 6:30 and 7:45 certain mornings, but the lifeguards got everyone out of the pool around 7:30 —so keep in mind that the open hours include your shower time.

All five lanes at this clean and nice facility were available for laps during my early Tuesday morning visit (6: 30 to 8 AM). On average, there were four to five swimmers of mixed level per lane. I enjoyed swimming here.
