In a city where many swimming facilities in Beirut are limited in space or variety, Sporting Club Beach offers a more complete seaside escape. Swimming here is more than a pastime — it is part of the coastal lifestyle and a cherished element of Beirut's heritage. Our pools and open-sea access provide clean, safe and refreshing options for swimmers of every age, from training and fitness to relaxed leisure. All facilities use natural saltwater, known for its calming effect on the mind and body, its gentle feel on the skin and its natural antimicrobial qualities. Together our swimming areas combine comfort, high hygiene standards and the distinctive charm of the Ras Beirut coastline.
Open Sea
Enjoy the Mediterranean in its purest form. Our open sea swimming area allows you to experience the clear blue waters of Beirut with uninterrupted views of the Pigeon Rocks, one of the most iconic landmarks of the city. The saltwater naturally supports relaxation, soothes the skin and provides a refreshing swim that feels both authentic and invigorating. It is a favourite choice for confident swimmers looking for a genuine seaside swim.
33 Meter Pool
The thirty three meter pool is ideal for training, fitness sessions and distance swimming. It is refilled every forty eight hours with fresh saltwater to maintain excellent cleanliness and comfort. This approach reduces the need for chemical treatments and keeps the water clear, gentle on the skin and pleasant for swimmers with sensitivities. Whether you are practicing laps or building stamina this pool offers a dependable and energising environment.
25 Meter Pool
Designed for everyday swimmers, families and casual fitness routines, the twenty five meter pool forms part of Sporting Club Beach's broader swimming facilities in Beirut. It is consistently refreshed with saltwater every forty eight hours, ensuring a clean and smooth swim. Lower chemical levels reduce irritation for the eyes and skin, while colours in swimwear remain vibrant for longer. The result is a dependable and enjoyable swimming option for guests of all ages.
Children's Pool
The Children's Pool is designed for toddlers and young swimmers who need a safe and welcoming space to build confidence in the water. The pool is refilled daily with clean saltwater to ensure excellent hygiene and greater comfort for delicate skin. It provides a secure and enjoyable environment for early learning, gentle splashing and family friendly fun.
Salt Water Pools, Thoughtfully Maintained
Our salt water pools are maintained with advanced robotic cleaning systems to ensure consistent cleanliness every day. Designed to use fewer chemicals than traditional pools, salt water offers a fresher, more comfortable swim while supporting a naturally clean environment. The result is clear water, gentle on the skin, and carefully maintained to high hygiene standards, so you can relax and enjoy the pool with confidence.

Amazing beach club from the 50s. The best in Beirut. Great views, simple aesthetics, very calm and no music. Food is good and the service is great.
