Paris is set to open three supervised swimming areas along the Seine in July 2023, marking the first time the river is accessible for swimming in over a century. This initiative is a result of significant clean-up efforts following the Olympic and Paralympic Games' open-water events. Surrounding areas will be equipped with necessary amenities while swimming will be restricted to designated sites to ensure safety amid the bustling commercial activity of the river. The opening is seen as a major public legacy moving forward.
In July, for the first time in over a century, swimming in the Seine will be permitted, thanks to extensive clean-up projects initiated by Paris.
The three new supervised swimming areas will open on July 5th, allowing hundreds to enjoy the river where open-water races were held during the Olympics.
Swimming will only be permitted in designated areas due to the Seine being a busy commercial river, ensuring both safety and enjoyment.
At Bras Marie, the swimming area is conveniently located near central attractions, complete with amenities for a safe and pleasant experience.
