Piscine de Deauville, Swimming pool in Deauville, France
Piscine de Deauville is a public swimming pool with an Olympic-sized main basin and a separate children's pool for younger swimmers. The facility provides spaces for recreational swimming, lessons, and water-based fitness classes throughout the year.
The pool was designed by architect Roger Taillibert in 1966 following a commission from entrepreneur Lucien Barrière. This project marked the start of Taillibert's career in sports facility architecture.
The pool serves as a central meeting point for 85,000 swimmers annually, offering swimming lessons, aqua fitness classes, and various water-based activities.
The pool is centrally located in Deauville and easily reached on foot or by local transport. Visitors should know that opening times vary by day and some hours may be reserved for organized classes or swim teams.
The facility uses seawater sourced from the bay, which is heated to consistent temperatures year-round. This makes it one of the few pools in the region that operates with saltwater for both training and recreational swimming.
