Dover Naturist Swim Club

Naturist Swimming at Dover Leisure Centre

The Dover Naturist Swim Club is a friendly group of mixed ages and genders, open to all naturists over 18.

We meet for a naturist swim at Dover Leisure Centre on Sunday evenings between Autumn and Spring from 8:30 pm to 9:30 pm.

We have exclusive use of the pool, together with the sauna and steam rooms beside it.

You don’t need to be a good swimmer - many of our members go for the social aspects of swimming and stay in the shallow end. One of our members has learnt to swim at our sessions with the help of other members; on the other hand we have a record breaking Channel swimmer in the club so you can hack out the lengths if that’s your thing. All disabilities are welcome, with suitable facilities and access.

Swim dates and times

The first swim of the season will be on Sunday 5th October 2025, after which it will be each Sunday until the last swim before Christmas on Sunday 21st December. Swims will restart on Sunday 4th January 2026 and run until the final swim of the season on Sunday 29th March.

In all cases, the swims will be from 8:30 to 9:30pm. Please arrive by 8:15, latecomers may not be admitted.

Cost

The fees for the 2025/26 season will be £8 per swim. Though cash payment is preferred, card payment may soon be possible. This season, we are also trialing an incentive scheme whereby a full payment for the pre-Christmas sessions in advance will receive one free session. T&Cs apply, please contact us for details.
