Three pools and much more than just water

It opened its doors on June 22 and will remain open until September 4, offering free swimming services with differentiated hours.
The venue boasts extensive grassy areas, trees, and umbrellas that allow visitors to enjoy the day without getting scorched. Additionally, there is a bar and café service to recharge without having to leave the premises. All this is set in a family-friendly and relaxed atmosphere, ideal for a full summer day.
Prices for every budget
The main draw of the Tomares pool is its pricing. For subscribers to the municipal sports facilities, entry is free. For the general public, prices vary according to age and day of the week. From Monday to Friday, children aged 4 to 14 pay €3.70, those over 14 pay €5.80, and seniors only pay €2.50. On weekends and holidays, prices rise slightly but remain among the most competitive in the province.
This progressive pricing system aims to encourage access to the pool for all, especially seniors and large families. A commitment to inclusive leisure that, judging by the turnout, is working. However, subscribers get an early start: from Monday to Friday, they have access from 12:15 to 19:15, while the general public can swim only from 14:15 to 19:15. On weekends, the hours are unified from 12:00 to 20:45.
A summer destination for all of Aljarafe
The Tomares pool does not only attract locals. Its easy access from nearby towns such as Bormujos, Castilleja de la Cuesta, or Mairena del Aljarafe makes it a regular choice for many Sevillians looking to cool off without spending a fortune. Additionally, the complex has ample parking and is well connected by public transport.
For sports enthusiasts, the sports complex also offers other facilities such as paddle courts, a gym, and football fields, although in summer the pool is the main attraction. A highly recommended option for those seeking an affordable dip without leaving the province.
Indeed, with these prices, it almost feels like a sin not to take a swim.
“It’s the best value for money in the area,” comments a regular user. “I come with my kids and for less than €10 we spend the whole afternoon.”The Tomares pool shows that cooling off in summer doesn’t have to be a luxury. With a bit of planning and knowing the hours, anyone can enjoy a day at the pool for less than the cost of an iced coffee.
