Summer is here, and we all need to cool down every once in a while. Accessing a fantastic outdoor pool is a plus, and luckily, South London has a gem. Brockwell Lido, a South London staple has been making waves (pun intended) with recent praise from . Ranking it as one of the 20 best lidos and outdoor pools in the country, The Telegraph highlighted it as a fantastic example of a well-maintained, accessible, and community-oriented lido. It is located at Brockwell Park.
Built in 1937, this beloved neighborhood spot has provided generations of Londoners with a refreshing escape. The 50-meter outdoor pool offers ample space for both casual and serious swimmers. Unlike many modern pools, Brockwell Lido is unheated, making it a truly invigorating experience, especially on a hot summer day.
Families can relax on the grassy surrounds in the park, enjoying a picnic lunch or soaking up the sun. Onsite cafes offer post-swim snacks and refreshments, and there’s even a sauna terrace for those seeking a touch of post-dip pampering. There is also a gym and health suite with a Jacuzzi, sauna and steam room. The outdoor sauna is open in winter only, and there’s a sunbathing terrace.

- The lido is open year-round, although the unheated water might not be for everyone in the winter months.
- Check their for current opening hours, pricing, and any special events.
- Book your swimming session in advance is highly recommended, especially during peak season.
