Admission Prices 2018

We accept most major debit and credit card payments, sorry we do not accept American Express.

We do not offer a "pre-book" service here at Beccles Lido. We operate on a first-come, first-served basis; however, once you have paid entry you may stay all day.

Unfortunately we do not allow any animals on site, except guide dogs.

Wristband System

On busy days we do operate a wristband system, which allows us to control bather numbers in the pool and maintain customer safety. 

The band system means customers will be asked to exit the water for a period of time, whilst band colours are rotated - they do not have to leave the site. 

Once the pool is full we implement a one in one out system at our entry gate, when this happens please expect long queues. On hot days remember to bring water.

The Big Dog Ferry runs between Beccles Lido and Geldeston Locks Inn. It is a relaxing 3 mile boat journey along the River Waveney with the opportunity to enjoy the wildlife en-route – otters, kingfishers and marsh harriers are all regular sights along the river. Disembark and enjoy a meal, a drink or the music at The Locks Inn, or stay on board for a round trip. If you're feeling energetic you could take a one-way ticket and walk back on delightful footpaths.

We also collect and drop-off at Geldeston Marina and Three Rivers Campsite with access to the Wherry Inn and Mandy's Famous Pickles.

Booking highly recommended - please call 07532 072761 for bookings and visit www.bigdogferry.co.uk for timetable and more details

We offer canoe hire from the Lido in association with TheCanoeMan.

One of the most attractive and unspoilt stretches of the River Waveney from the quiet market town of Beccles, our canoe trail travels west towards the unique riverside pub at Geldeston. Dependent on how fast you paddle and how much "pub time" you take, the journey from our centre to "The Locks" will take you about 1.5 hours each way and makes a lovely day out. The stretch of river above "The Locks" is REALLY quiet being unnavigable to other craft so you can lose yourself in the peace and tranquillity of the wonderful River Waveney. With our hire centre being based at the Beccles Lido this gives you an ideal opportunity to either start or finish your day with an invigorating swim in one of the few remaining outdoor pools in the region.

Advance bookings only - please call 0845 496 9177 or visit their website for more information and to book.
