Seasonal Pool Schedules at a Glance

Use this quick reference to plan your swim sessions across the seasons.

Tip: The calendar is designed so you always have a swimming option—outdoor throughout the warmer months and heated indoor for cooler seasons, with handy overlap periods for maximum flexibility.

How to Plan by Season

Autumn to Spring (mid‑September to mid‑June): Cosy, consistent indoor laps

• Rely on the heated indoor pool for comfortable swims at an average 28ºC.
• Bring a swimming cap—it’s compulsory in the indoor pool.
• Take advantage of the locker room with lockers to store your essentials between swims.
• Looking to unwind post‑swim? Sauna and massages are available as paid services.

Late Spring to Early Summer (01/05–15/06): Double your options

• Enjoy the best of both worlds: outdoor pools open on 01/05 while the indoor pool operates until 15/06.
• Alternate between a warm‑up indoors and sunny outdoor sessions—perfect for families with different preferences.
• Make it family‑friendly: the outdoor children’s pool keeps little swimmers happy, while adults can relax nearby.

Summer Peak (15/06–15/09): Outdoor time shines

• Make the most of the outdoor pools for leisurely swims and family fun.
• The large outdoor pool includes a crane for guests with reduced mobility, supporting safe and easy access.
• Pair your pool time with refreshments at the snack bar‑pizzeria (open all year) or plan a relaxed meal at the restaurant (open 01/04–31/10).

The September Switch (around 15/09): Smooth transition

• As the outdoor season wraps up, the indoor heated pool begins its new season on 15/09, keeping your swimming routine seamless as temperatures cool.

Family‑Friendly and Accessible Swimming

2. Bring a cap to guarantee access to the indoor pool and keep one spare in your swim bag.
3. Use the lockers by the indoor pool to streamline family transitions.
4. Plan for weather: while dates are scheduled, both pool seasons can vary with conditions—check daily updates at reception.
5. Leverage family zones: start young swimmers in the children’s pool, then rotate adults into the deeper pool.

7. Pair swims with dining: the snack bar‑pizzeria is open year‑round; the restaurant operates 01/04–31/10—ideal for post‑swim meals.
8. Mix pool days with beach time: the campsite is just 800 m from the beach and sea, so you can alternate saltwater and pool days naturally.

Beyond the Pool: More Water and Wellness

• Beach proximity: At only 800 m from the sea, you can balance pool routines with easy beach walks and swims.
• Diving on your doorstep: Since 2017, the Aquàtica diving center has been housed at the campsite, offering diving outings and courses within the Montgrí, Medes Islands and Baix Ter Natural Park.
