PISCINE GEORGES DRIGNY

Piscine municipale très sympa

J'adore cette piscine par contre les horaires c'est la fête du slip.
4e fois que j'arrive, les horaires sur internet marquent ouvert, fermé sans explication.
Les horaires changent tous les 4 matins, impossible de planifier.
Dommage parce que le personnel est adorable.

Je trouve les commentaires négatifs un peu excessifs. C'est une petite piscine un peu vieillotte, à la propreté perfectible, certes, mais pas catastrophique non plus (ça reste un établissement public, ouvert à tous durant de longues plages horaires - donc rien de très anormal). J'y suis allé un mercredi en nocturne, ce n'est pas bondé, l'agent d'accueil a été tout à fait courtois et la température de l'eau était bonne. Franchement, vu le prix d'entrée (assez dérisoire, faut être honnête), l'expérience est tout à fait acceptable.

Piscine agréable, le personnel et moniteurs sont sympas, je recommande :) Attention dependant à ne pas aller aux heures de pointe, cela peut être très vite agaçant

I have gone twice so far. Both times early in the morning when the pool opens. The pool itself has five lanes. The outer lanes seem to be used for lessons or miscellaneous swimming or wading, and are not ideal for lap swimming. The center lane is supposed to be for experience swimmers, but experience does not seem to mean consistent speed. I have seen swimmers sprinting at high speed, others doing consistent laps, and others using fins, kickboards, slow strokes such as breast stroke, so it is a bit chaotic. The two lanes on either side of the center lane are a little bit slower, but also get a variety of different speeds and styles and a lot of passing down the middle. There were two life guard attendants present but they don't really police who is doing what in any lane. This just seems to be the reality of swimming in a public pool. For 3.5 euro, what can you really expect? In any case the other swimmers are friendly and no one seemed to mind getting passed or because someone was swimming slowly. There were 4-5 swimmers in each lane when I went first thing in the morning. The water was ok temperature. One day the water was a little cloudy, and another day it had cleared up a bit.

The locker area was fine. As with other public pools I have been to in Paris, you take your street shoes off before entering the locker area. The lockers are coin operated so you have to have a 1 euro coin or a "jeton" (little white plastic token) to use a locker. As earlier comments have observed, many keys have broken wrist bands so check that before putting all your gear in a locker. There are benches and hooks as well be the lockers so you have somewhere to sit and place your items as you change. One wall is lined with dressing rooms, so you can have some privacy. When I was there, no problem getting a cabin.

This pool is an acceptable option for swimmers given the location and price.
