Centre Aquatique Grand Bleu, Cannes La Bocca
Swimming pool designed for leisure & competitive activities
This sports centre has a 50m pool, 25m pool and a paddling pool, as well as a beach volleyball area and plenty of green space that is open to the public for relaxing and leisure games.
The Grand Bleu, or Big Blue, is open all year. Due to the local climate being mild during the winter the outdoor swimming pools are available all through the year, making this a more pleasant environment then the covered pool areas.
Sun beds are available around the pool sides and on the grass areas. The swimming pools are also heated to 28 degrees. There are comfortable locker and changing facilities and plenty of areas that are safe for children away from the edge of the swimming pools. The paddling pool is only open during the summer months of May to September.
