Welcome To

Arundel Lido

Arundel Lido offers outdoor swimming with heated pools in a stunning setting. It is situated in the picturesque town of Arundel and is in the South Downs National Park.

A Lido is more than just an outside swimming pool. The term “Lido” is from the name of the place in Venice where bathing took place. Lidos usually have areas for sunbathing, relaxing and eating and are designed for activities around water. Our Lido offers all of these facilities.

Today Arundel Lido is the only remaining Lido in West Sussex. It is operated by a Charitable Trust.

The 2023 summer season will run from Saturday 29th April – Sunday 17th September.

Our Lido Manager and the Arundel Lido Team will strive to ensure that your visit to Arundel Lido is an enjoyable and safe one.
