Saltdean Lido Dog Swim 2020

Once again, we are hosting TWO Dog Swim Weekends for 2020 on 19/20th and 26/27th September.

Here's how it works: Due to having to restrict the number of Humans on site (though not the number of dogs), we are holding 5 sessions on each of the four days.

Session times are:
9am-10.30am; 11am-12.30pm; 1pm-2.30pm; 3pm-4.30pm and 5pm-6.30pm

For the dog swim ticket, your Best Friend has access to both the main pool and for those less adventurous, the paddling pool (with slide).
You must book a Human ticket before the system will allow you to book a Dog ticket.

If you want to swim with your BF, you'll need a human swim ticket, or if you prefer to stand at the poolside and throw a toy, a spectator ticket is fine.

For Health & Safety reasons, we do not allow Under-16s into the pools (This applies to Humans only!!!) Under-16s are welcome as spectators.

The lifeguards are only trained for Humans, so you are responsible for your BF. We have an absolute No Aggression policy (so if either you or your BF snarl at or attack anyone, you'll both be asked to leave - though we've never had a fight yet). And of course, it goes without saying that we expect you to pick up any deposits your BF leaves.

There's lots of grass for your BF to dash around on too, if they have any energy left, and the site is secure.

We will NOT be selling any tickets on the door this year and ask that everyone socially distances whilst queuing outside, so that one of our volunteers can tick you off the ticket list prior to the gate opening.

We do not have any changing facilities this season, so please come prepared. There's plenty of space for changing under a towel afterwards.

Because it's so difficult to socially distance poolside (around both pools), even though we're out in the open, we must ask all adults not swimming to wear facial covering when in the congested areas.

We're sorry to have so many restrictions this year, but it's for Your Safety.
