The Lido opens for the summer season on Saturday 7 June 2025. We’ll be running both a Term Time and Summer Holiday timetable, so please visit our BookWhen page for the latest booking information and availability. In addition to Lane Swims and General Swims, we offer dedicated sessions including 50+, Parent & Toddler, Aqua Wellness, and Naked Swimming. Keep an eye out for our popular Full Moon Swims and a range of special events throughout the season. Join us for a fantastic summer at Dorset’s only Lido.
