Bathing and Swimming in Canal Saint Martin

Swimming in Saint Martin

Every Sunday from 9th July to 20 August 2023 from 12 to 4pm, Come and Swim in the Canal Saint-Martin for free.

In addition to swimming at the Bassin de La Villette, you can swim in the Canal Saint-Martin which is  free for every Sunday this summer.

Come and cool off in the heart of Paris in the 10th arrondissement, opposite the Espace Jemmapes and the Jardin Villemin. Changing rooms and compulsory showers are available inside the Jemmapes sports centre (please note that there are no lockers).

The swimming area is approximately 100m long and is supervised. It is accessible from a pontoon located at 116 Quai de Jemmapes. A solarium with deckchairs is available.

For your safety, the locks will be closed all afternoon. The Mairie de Paris and the Agence Régionale de Santé d'Ile-de-France will be carrying out regular water quality checks. Swimming may be closed in the event of poor water quality or thunderstorms.

Make the most of your visit to the Canal Saint-Martin or go to Paris Plages.
