Piscina Fontes do Sar

Important Notice Please Read

Swimmers Guide is not connected with any of the facilities listed on this site in any way. We cannot tell you the pools’ opening and closing times or when Senior Aerobics classes are held; we cannot tell you about the availability or cost of swimming lessons; we cannot get you discounted admission to swim at any of them; and we cannot help you find your children’s lost goggles or bathing suits.

We can and do try to give you reliable information about the pools, their locations, their admission policies, and their single-visit or casual swimming prices. Where possible, we include hypertext links to the pools’ own official websites and Facebook pages, clickable email addresses, and links to the websites of the clubs and teams that swim there. Look to those resources within each listing for more detailed information.

The data in the site is under continual review and is revised whenever the site’s editor becomes aware of a change, but, with more than 20,000 listings, a complete, periodic review of every listing takes about seven years to complete; in many places, prices will change four or five times before we have a chance to check the pool’s official website again.

For that reason, we ask for your help: If any of the information in the listing is incorrect, out of date, or could be improved, please tell us. There is an "Edit" button on just about every line of every listing, click on the edit button to tell us what needs to be changed. (No, it's not a place for you to ask us questions. What we have in each listing is the latest news we have.)

Also, please consider checking the listings of the pools you regularly use at home or when traveling, as your knowledge may be helpful to someone else who is unfamiliar with the area and visiting for the first time. Just go to the Add a Pool section of the site, read the first page, then fill out the questionnaire.

Facility Notes

The website referenced in the "Facility Overview" section, above, covers several different locations: This facility, Piscina Fontes do Sar (or Piscina Municipal Fontes do Sar); the Pavillón Multiusos Fontes do Sar, about 250 meters to the southwest of the Piscina Fontes do Sar; and the Complexo Deportivo de Santa Isabel, about 2.7 km. on foot to the west northwest. This may cause some confusion for users (it sure did confuse us), so be sure you understand what you're looking at when reading that website.
The pool is oddly shaped; there are two distinct sections connected to each other: the rectangular lap swimming section, described above, and a grand piano-shaped leisure pool. The lap section could accommodate a sixth lane, but the 3½m connecting point makes the addition of a lane there impractical. Zoom-in on the Google Maps link, above, for a better understanding.

Facility Reviews

During the summer months, the facility opens at 11 AM. The outdoor lap pool temperature was around 80ºF (27ºC), but only one lap lane was set up. Go early before families take over the lap pool, too. There are no kick boards or pull buoys, The life guard will lend you a mandatory swimming cap.
