Jubilee Pool Penzance

Penzance’s Jubilee Pool was opened in 1935 to mark the Silver Jubilee of George V - this year we celebrate our 90th Birthday!

Take an open-air dip in the UK’s largest and most celebrated saltwater lido. Swim outdoors at this illustrious and historic outdoor swimming pool overlooking Penzance seafront. Opened in the 1930s, the triangular art deco seawater pool has provided a bracing swim to holidaymakers and Cornish residents alike for many years and 2020 saw Jubilee Pool launch a geothermal pool – a UK first, offering you the chance to bathe in natural salt water heated to at least 30 degrees by their own hot water well.

This unique experience will create treasured memories for years to come – from splashing around as a family to luxurious day packages for adults, soaking up the Cornish summer sun or enjoying a bracing sea swim in the off-season.

Treat yourself to a post-swim meal at Jubilee Pool cafe, serving locally sourced food and drink with unrivalled views across Mounts Bay.
