OPEN WATER SWIMMING

Come and swim in the lake at Beckenham Place Park.

Whether you're a regular open water swimmer, training for an event or simply want to enjoy being outdoors and in the water, our supervised sessions give you a safe and welcoming place to swim.

During colder periods, swimmers will need to complete our Cold Water Swimming Induction before entering the water. This will only have to be taken once.
