West Reservoir Open Water Swimming Centre Featured venue Premium listing

West Reservoir is London’s Premier Open Water Swimming venue. Currently we are open every day offering 400m and 100m loops.

Booking is made via the Better Booking app and available in 50 minute swim slots (plus 10 minute changing time)

Our experienced, friendly and professional SESA (Swim Event Safety Award) team of Lifeguards are always on duty throughout every session to ensure the wellbeing and confidence of all swimmers.

Swimmers must wear either a wet-suit or use a tow float (provided). No induction is currently required as all new swimmers receive an in-depth safety briefing on their first visit this season.

Furthermore, as West Reservoir is a functioning Water Sports Centre, we have the following facilities for our customers:

Outdoor changing area only (due to promoting social distancing); Free WIFI (for posting those all important OWS Selfies); Free Customer Parking (30 Spaces); Bike Parking; Membership and Loyalty custom incentives; Excellent Transportation Links. Available to purchase: Tow-Floats, Swimming Hats and Goggles.
Current COVID-19 safe measures include strong focus on social distancing, limited swimmer numbers, 1-way system into and out of the faculty, hand sanitiser stations and staff monitoring.
