Municipal pool
Opening hours and the quickest way to confirm a session.
The municipal pool supports public swimming and organised activity through the week. Hours vary by day and may change for holidays or maintenance.
Before you go
Call ahead for lessons, public-lane availability, holiday hours and any closure. Timetabled clubs or classes can affect public access.
Choose the right session
Opening hours do not guarantee that every lane or pool area is available. Ask specifically about public swimming, lessons, children’s access, club use and whether advance enrolment is required.
On a first visit, allow time for reception and changing. Follow the facility’s rules on swimwear, caps, footwear and supervision of children.
Accessibility and health
Contact the pool before travelling if you need step-free access, transfer support or a quieter time. Do not swim when unwell, and follow staff instructions whenever a class, maintenance issue or water-quality check changes access.
