Swimming at Lido Ponty

Swimming at Lido Ponty is a unique experience that combines historic charm with modern leisure. The National Lido of Wales features three heated outdoor pools, designed to suit all ages and abilities, from dedicated lanes for fitness swimmers to splash-friendly areas for families. Set in the heart of Ynysangharad War Memorial Park in Pontypridd, it provides a refreshing and memorable way to spend time outdoors while enjoying the beautifully restored 1920s setting.

Visitors can pre-book swim sessions, which are available throughout the year and often include seasonal extras such as inflatables or fun family activities. With a welcoming café on site and plenty of space to relax before or after your swim, it is an ideal destination for both locals and tourists.
