NEW SSC CLOTHING HAS ARRIVED!!

The Serpentine Lake is situated in London's Hyde Park.  The club has its own changing facilities and is allowed to swim in the lake in the mornings during certain hours.  If you are interested in joining the club come down and have a chat with some of the swimmers at 8am on any Saturday.

The Serpentine Lido opened for the summer season on 1 May.  The Lido is staffed with professional lifeguards and opens to the paying public 10:00 - 18:00 Saturday and Sundays from the start of May and then all week from June.  As well the 100m swimming area, there is a children's paddling pool, waterside tables, sun loungers and a cafe.  The Serpentine Lido also offers daytime/early evening triathlon training and coaching sessions (for a fee) and lifeguards are in attendance.

The Serpentine Swimming Club swim all year round, and large numbers are to be found swimming in the famous "Peter Pan Christmas Day Race".  The temperature can get to a tropical 70^oF in the heat of Summer and go down to freezing in Winter.  When the lake is frozen the swimmers break a hole in the ice to enable them to get their morning constitutional swim.
