Raya YunakovaJanuary 11, 2018Outdoor 50m pool, perfect water temperature, lanes for fast and slow swimmers. Makes for an amazing experience and is perfect for winter swims!
- Stuart FrewMay 14, 2018Just enjoy the sunshine on the sunny days as it can be hard to get a great swim. Other than that if you can hit the pool outside of peak times it brilliant
Evening StandardJuly 2, 2012Given how busy it gets over the summer, it might be worth waiting till later in the year when you'll have more space to splash around. On Tuesday evenings they have a female only session. Read more
Nataly GuryanovaJuly 2, 2015Get there early to avoid queues :) 20p is needed for the locker (non- refundable). Smaller , but less crowded than lido in Brixton and their cafe serves healthy food options. 🏊🏻😊
Heated, even in the winter. Amazing place to go on a clear winters day, and as a bonus it'll be half as busy as in the summer months!
Mathew WilsonMarch 29, 2015Go late. Such a nice place to be after 8pm (unless there's a big private class on which makes the changing room a bit horrible at closing time / 9pm.
Beautifully maintained lido that's perfect for fresh but heated swim all year round. £5 pay-per-swim.
Ellz RibbonSeptember 8, 2021Swimming outdoors all year round. I like that it is a long pool too - 50m!
The TelegraphJune 28, 2012London Fields Lido is London’s only 50-metre-long heated outdoor pool. It's an exceptionally popular Hackney venue so expect it to be packed on hot days.
You can now swim outdoors from 6.30am until 9pm all year round after flood lights were recently installed
Claire BadhamsMarch 21, 2010You can't beat a dip in the lido on a spring day. Heated pool in a great location with authentic changing boothes around it, is a great experience and one you can't do anywhere else pretty much.
Martin TiedemannMay 20, 20125 July: Swim outside in Hackney. The pool is very popular with all ages, owing to its heating, which regulates water temperatures around 25°C.
Go late at night when it's cold for a lovely uninterrupted swim
Mark TullyDecember 16, 2014Floodlights have been installed so it's now open from 6:30am all year round
Ines MakasJuly 6, 2015Better be there before lunch time in summer. Otherwise you easily wait for an hour or more to get in.
Benjamin BowenOctober 2, 2011Jamorama today. A lot of 'swimmers' sitting on the side of the pool dangling their chubby pegs in the water. Come early at the weekend!!
- remember most people are fair weather swimmers, even it's warm and overcast the pool will not be busy.
I should have put my favorite swimming pool here!
London Fields Tri Clubs - Aquathlon, 03/10/2010 @ 2pm. 400m swim-5k Run. See website for more details: http://lftriathlon.blogspot.com
4 pounds 30 P to swim in a beautiful heated outdoor swimming pool? YES PLEASE! :)
Mattia ScolariAugust 31, 2015Perfect for an outdoor swim if you don't mind a bit of crowd when the sun is out. Too bad for the fair right next to it, it feels like the air is kind of polluted by the trucks sometimes.
Anne ChamberlainJanuary 3, 2018Piscine extérieure chauffée avec solarium et café en plein milieu du parc London Fields. Toujours pris d'assaut dès qu'il fait beau, allez-y en fin de matinée pour éviter la foule.
