A swimming spot in the heart of nature, just a stone’s throw from Paris

On sunny days, you can swim in crystal-clear water under professional supervision, sunbathe on the free lounge chairs provided, read a book, have a picnic, and more… Just like last year, you can book your time slot up to 4 days in advance. Access to this little slice of paradise costs just 3 euros for local residents (upon presentation of proof of residence) and 8 euros for everyone else… Treat yourself to a relaxing break and extend that vacation feeling—even in Paris!
