Centre Aquatique Océanides

Centre Aquatique Océanides is a water facility in Fontenay-le-Comte offering multiple pools for different activities and age groups. The complex features a 25-meter sports pool with six lanes, a 5-meter diving pit, a leisure pool, and recreational water attractions.

The facility was built to address growing demand for water sports infrastructure in the Pays de la Loire region. Its development was part of efforts to improve recreational and sporting opportunities for local communities.

The center runs swimming lessons and water safety classes for children starting at age six, helping young people build confidence in the water. Families regularly visit these programs during school holidays and weekends as a routine recreational activity.

The facility maintains different temperature zones, with the leisure pool warmed to 32°C for comfort. It is best to arrive early, especially when visiting with children or in groups, to avoid crowded periods.

A 39-meter waterslide winds through the facility, creating an exciting experience for visitors of all ages. The outdoor area with green spaces and sandy beaches creates a relaxed summer setting that goes beyond typical pool activities.
