At a glance

Gyms with a pool

The large Dutch chains focus on the training floor and leave out a pool, so the gyms on this list are almost all independent health clubs, sports centres and hotel or resort facilities. They are spread thinly, with a few in Amsterdam, Rotterdam and Almere and others in coastal towns such as Noordwijk. Many combine the pool with a sauna and steam room in a wellness area.

Compare 6 gyms with a pool in Amsterdam

Find a club where you can swim after training, from Amsterdam to Noordwijk and Almere.

Dutch gyms with a pool are spread from Amsterdam, Rotterdam and Almere to Noordwijk on the coast and Dongen in Brabant, and none of the large budget chains is among them.

Compare the pool itself as well as the gym: length, water temperature and the hours set aside for lane swimming differ widely between a health club and a resort. Check whether swimming is included in the membership or sold as a separate subscription, and when the pool is busiest.

What to know about gyms with a pool in Amsterdam

What differs from one gym to the next, and what to check before you sign up.

Dutch pools divide the day into sessions, with separate times for lap swimming (baantjeszwemmen), aqua fitness, lessons and family swimming, so check the schedule before you go. At health clubs the pool usually belongs to the wellness area and is included in the more complete memberships, while municipal sports centres may sell gym and swim access separately. Shower before entering the pool.

Tips

  • Check the schedule for lap swimming (baantjeszwemmen) before you plan a swim.
  • Ask whether the pool comes with your membership tier or the wellness add-on.
  • Look at health clubs and sports centres; the big chains rarely have a pool.
