Description
Thames Young Marines is a semi tidal lake linked to the River Thames. The lake is located inside the Ham Lands Local Nature Reserve. The lake is open year round and sessions are bookable via www.Surreyoutdoorlearning.uk There are two swim loops open to all, with the option of just dipping and looking for the resident Kingfisher. The large loop is 500m and smaller loop 250m. We are currently open to over 18s only. We are exploring options to open to the younger swimmers.
Getting There
You can drive or ride to the venue and parking is on-site. The closets bus stop is for the 371 and in Broughton Avenue, Ham. It is then a short walk to the centre. The closest train station is Teddington and then a 30 minute walk. Richmond and Kingston are also near but but would require a bus/cab/bike to get to the centre.
Accessibility
There is a gentle slope down to the water and then a gradual slope when in the water. There are also steps to a pontoon if required. Staff can also adapt a swim entry and exit for those that require it.

One of my fave places to swim. Friendly people and the owner Simon is super helpful. Only downside is the irregular times as it’s tidal
