In the summer of 2026, East London will welcome the Sea Lanes Canary Wharf, a floating Olympic-sized lido designed to enhance the local community’s recreational options. Located at Eden Dock, this impressive facility will feature a 50-metre pool with six lanes, specifically designed for swimmers of all skill levels.
The lido will provide year-round access to open water swimming, allowing residents and visitors to enjoy an aquatic experience regardless of the season.
Safety is a priority for the Sea Lanes Canary Wharf. The pool will have a fixed depth of 1.3 metres, creating a secure environment for swimming enthusiasts. The water will be naturally filtered and will meet the quality rated “Excellent” by EU Bathing Standards.
This high standard guarantees that swimmers can feel confident in the cleanliness and safety of the water, making it an attractive destination for both casual swimmers and serious athletes.
The Sea Lanes will not only cater to swimming activities but will also promote a thorough wellness experience. The lido will include outdoor saunas that provide an opportunity for relaxation after swimming.
A community clubhouse will serve as a gathering place for fitness classes and events, encouraging social interaction and community engagement. This space will be essential in fostering connections among local residents while promoting a healthy lifestyle.
As part of a broader initiative to transform Eden Dock, the Sea Lanes Canary Wharf will integrate leisure and wellness activities in a bustling urban setting. The project aims to elevate East London as a recreational destination, making it a place where individuals and families can come together to enjoy fitness and relaxation.
With its modern facilities and focus on community wellness, the floating lido is set to become a beloved feature of the East London landscape by the summer of 2026.
