Best swimming spots in Krakow and surroundings

Where to go for a swim in Krakow and nearby?

When the heat is unbearable, we look for a cool place near the water. In Krakow and its surroundings, we have many swimming spots to choose from!

Zakrz贸wek

This will undoubtedly be a hit this summer! The newly created swimming pools in the Zakrz贸wek quarry are located in the heart of Krakow, about 3 km from Wawel Castle! In the sun, the water shimmers with a beautiful turquoise color, and the steep limestone cliffs surrounding it offer a view like in Croatian resorts.

Sosina Reservoir in Jaworzno

This is definitely one of our favorite places! The reservoir is located in Jaworzno, 50km from Krakow, towards Katowice. The swimming area has recently been renovated - we have new sanitary facilities, a large number of spacious toilets with changing tables, a ramp for strollers right under the beach and a shallow area for infants. Even near the water, you will find plenty of shade. A big plus for the asphalt pedestrian-bicycle promenade running around the reservoir - perfect for rollerblading, cycling or a walk with a stroller.
