Outdoor swimming pools in Paris this summer>> SEE ADDRESSES

Nice when it’s very hot and very nice in July and August

What could be better than a little dip to cool off when it’s a heat wave in Paris or when it’s just hot … There are of course the Parisian swimming pools, but to feel a little on holiday, we advise you to discover theoutdoor swimming pools of the capital. Another idea to cool the children down: parks with water games.

For several summers, Paris Baignade has been the free summer swimming program. In July and August, take advantage of the free facilities of the City of Paris! They attract families, teenagers, adults and even tourists all summer long. Swimming, water games, sunbathing and relaxation to feel like you’re on holiday!
