Ahead of the reopening, the Lorca City Council’s Sports Department has carried out a series of upgrades to the facilities. Improvements include renovations to changing rooms, bathrooms, and beach and shower areas, alongside thorough water treatment and health checks.
Lifeguard, cleaning and security services will be in place throughout the summer to ensure a safe and pleasant experience for all visitors.

At the Zarcilla de Ramos pool, classes will take place on Tuesdays and Thursdays, with aquagym at 3.10pm and 4pm, Level 0 swimming at 4.50pm and Level 1 at 5.40pm.
Over in La Parroquia, classes will run on Wednesdays and Fridays, starting with Level 0 swimming at 4pm Level 1 at 4.50pm and aquagym at 5.40pm.
Entry prices remain the same as last year, with special discounts ranging from 20% to 30% available for large families and holders of youth cards. Children and pensioners can enjoy a swim for just €2, or purchase a 5-swim pass for €8 and a 10-swim pass for €14. Adults pay €3 per visit, €12 for five swims or €21 for ten. Family entry is €10, with a 5-visit pass available for €40.
Juan Miguel Bayonas, Councillor for Sports, highlighted that “with the opening of these pools, the municipal summer campaign is being activated in two population centers. In addition to enjoying this service, it will attract residents from other parts of the municipality, which also benefits the local economy in both areas.
“The courses offered at the summer pools promote both active leisure activities and the learning of a sport as comprehensive as swimming, which can be continued throughout the school year at the San Antonio and Felipe VI sports complexes.”
