The UK's Most Celebrated Saltwater Lido

Penzance, Cornwall

Sea Pool

The UK’s largest seawater pool, holding approximately 5 million litres of water. It is filled on a high tide allowing you to enjoy cold water swimming in a sheltered, lifeguarded pool with freshwater showers and facilities. The pool temperature usually sits a couple of degrees warmer than the surrounding seawater. The children’s pool is also saltwater, has a depth of 0.6m and is not heated (except by the sun)!

Geothermal Pool

Reopening on the 31st March 2026, secure your space by booking below.

The geothermal pool is a naturally heated sea pool that reaches temperatures between 28–30 degrees.
