Swimming in the Baldeneysee

They have been there since May 2017, the three footbridges that border two swimming pools in the Baldeneysee border two swimming pools. After a long period of 33 years, during which swimming was no longer possible in the former Strandbad Baldeney, which therefore functioned as the Baldeney light and air pool, swimming has been possible again since then. Weather and water quality permitting, the swimming area at Seaside Beach Baldeney is open. If you would like to know in advance whether swimming in the Baldeneysee is possible, you can find the information on the Seaside Beach website or here at Baldeneysee.Ruhr.

On a total of around 30 days a year, swimming in the natural Baldeneysee in the natural swimming pool at Seaside Beach Baldeney has finally been possible again. The water quality is checked regularly. If the analyzed water samples reveal any contamination, a swimming ban can be imposed at short notice, according to those responsible. Red signs posted at the edge of the pool will then indicate this. There will also be a notice at the entrance to Seaside Beach Baldeney stating whether swimming is possible. Diving tower, water slide and non-swimmer pool as once found in the Strandbad Baldeney are history, but experienced swimmers can cool off in the two pools at Seaside Beach directly in the water of the Baldeneysee to cool off.

A lifeguard keeps the outdoor pool at Baldeneysee and ensures that the bathing rules are observed. The three footbridges lead from the shore into the water and border the two swimming pools to the east and west. A buoy line borders the pools towards the water. The metal walkways are finished with an anti-slip coating and the shore area is reinforced with a special anti-slip concrete that comes from the Netherlands and is intended to provide additional safety in the natural outdoor pool at Seaside Beach Baldeney. Baldeneysee.Ruhr remains on the ball when it comes to "swimming in the Baldeneysee" on the ball.
