Finding the naturist area
Check in at the swimming-pool reception for Blootzwemmen. The competition and instruction pools are included, with the Icelandic bathhouse on the first floor of the waterpark; follow staff directions rather than entering the closed leisure pool.
Where naturism applies
The public pool is only naturist during the organiser’s reserved session; an ordinary public swim ticket does not establish nude access.
- Check the organiser’s live calendar before travel, especially around holidays and maintenance closures.
- Photographs may show the venue outside a naturist session.
Access guidance checked 2026-11-13. Follow current signs and any instructions from the venue or land manager.
