How long to allowHalf a day AgesFrom infancy — toddlers 0–3 swim in a compulsory swim nappy, and the pool runs learn-to-swim courses for every age including yeshiva students during bein hazmanim. Indoor or outdoorIndoor On Shabbat and chagimClosed Best time to goYear round. The pool flags new motzaei Shabbat free-swim times in summer when the clocks change, so it is worth ringing in Nisan and again in Elul. AccessibilityHydrotherapy and rehabilitation swimming are offered for both men and women, which implies staff trained for swimmers with disabilities; confirm access details by phone.
Insider tips
- Always call the recorded line 02-6221522 before setting out — the timetable published on the website is out of date and the pool says so.
- Swimming is separate at all times; there are no mixed family sessions.
- Motzaei Shabbat free swimming runs late in summer, from about 21:30.
- A ten-entry adult card at ₪430 beats nine single entries.
- Toddlers under 3 must wear a swim nappy — they will not let you in without one.
