The indoor pool is usually kept at 30ºC (86ºF), except for Thursdays and Saturdays, when the temperature is reaised to 31ºC (88ºF).

There is also a ~40m x ~50m, mushroom-shaped, outdoor, seasonal swimming pool (lido) at this location; its normal operations run from May to September. The stem portion of the mushroom shape is approximately 25y x 20f and is the only portion of the pool that is deep enough to swim laps.

The lido operates beyond what would ordinarily be considered the "normal" season for ourdoor swimming and its website gives the followng guidance:
"We highly recommend a wet suit and swim cap are worn at all times in water temperature below 15ºC (59ºF). Below 12ºC (53.6ºF), we recommend customers only swim for a maximum of 20 minutes. The Lido will close at temperatures below 10ºC (50ºF)."
