Sadly only 25 meters It’s hard to find a 50 meter pool in rural Poland

Most pools are 25 yards so that’s pretty standard

25 meters is almost equal to 25 yards too Also, when I looked up the average pool length in Europe, it showed 25 meters.

Having swum in both meter and yard pools, the difference is significant enough to notice

It absolutely matters, it’s an extra stroke in butterfly or breaststroke, turning a 200 into a 225 if you swim yards

The 1500m is the 1650y in the US or else it would skip a whole 6 lengths

It seems like every town in Australia has a 50 meter pool; I’ve seen very few 25 meter ones.

@Kit
Most pool centers I know have both lengths.

Just wait Tomorrow you might wonder why it got busy all of a sudden It’s nice to have a quiet pool. I prefer quiet over busy.

32

I really envy you

33

Honestly I would just live in that pool

34

Was this a common situation in Poland? That was how EU funds got spent. There’s an oddly placed aquatic center near where a friend lives close to Gdansk, I can’t remember the name.

Such a beauty If it’s 98% empty, how do they manage costs to keep the pool running

Like I said, it’s inside the water park and they have over 1500 visitors every day. To enter this pool, it costs an extra 3€ so we can have peace without bothering others from the water park.

@Devan
That’s amazing! It must be so peaceful to swim there.

38

@Devan
Does that mean you have to pay the water park entry fee plus another fee

No, that would be silly. You can just pay 3€ to swim or get a monthly pass for 33€. The extra 3€ keeps most water park visitors out so we have our peace.

That’s beautiful
