And since it's Storey County, maybe it can be topless like the Badeschiff Berlin!) My husband and I arrived early on a weekday morning, but the Badeschiff was already packed. There were still folding chairs in a stack that could be set up, but all the chairs that were already set up were claimed. That was no problem for us, though, because we only planned to stay for a few minutes. My husband, as a ginger, is a bit of a vampire, and he had no desire to go in the water or to be in the sun. Nevertheless, he was able to find a bench under a shady spot, so he didn't even have to get his shoes sandy as he waited as I enjoyed swimming and taking in the most ridiculous, delightful atmosphere. A beach in downtown Berlin! Swimming in a beautiful pool located in the Spree! We drove here and parked for free along Eichenstraße and walked in. I changed into my suit in the car, so I cannot comment on the changing rooms available there. We paid our entrance fees (11 euros for the two of us) and scoped out the territory. Ladies can sunbathe topless, but tops and bottoms are required in the pool. I'm pretty sure that German swimming etiquette involves taking a brief rinse in the outdoor shower immediately before the pool entrance both before and after enjoying the pool. My non-German speaking and reading husband thought that a sign that actually read "no bicycles" said "no photographing," so he was loathe to take all the photos that I wanted him to take of our/my experience there. (Maybe the topless ladies also in the frame of the camera threw him off? He says that he did not want to seem pervy.) But rest assured, folks who are #doingitfortheinsta that you can, indeed, get that snap that you want. 10/10 I would make my sun, sand, and alcohol-adverse husband come here again because this place is SO COOL.

View is amazing. Pool in the middle of the river and pretty sunset views. People do jumps, flips in…read morethe pool. We go at sunset time on weekdays and it is not crowded. Pool is heated! There are changing room, lockers, bathroom, nice sun deck with lounge chairs. They rent you standup paddle board also to paddle at the river. Must visit once! We love it there! We swim and watch others doing stand up paddle board. Super cool! We swim laps, take pictures, and sit on the side at Cody lounge chair, enjoy music there and watch the world goes by! Ah....h. Come and enjoy this unique Berlin experience.

Go to the sauna! This one was close to my flat--it's a bit bizarre to get to the sauna part. I wondered around what looked to be a hospital for awhile. I finally found an elevator, stumbled down a low-lit hallway, and found an unmanned desk. I eventually found the guy, bought a day pass (I can't remember how many Euro, but it wasn't outrageously expensive) and checked in. Once inside, there is, eh hem, lots of nudity, giant showers, steam rooms and saunas. They also have lounge chairs where you can hang out after, read a book or listen to some music.

This is a beautiful indoor pool facility that was recently restored. There are two large pools -…read morethe largest is kept at around 28c/82f and the smaller large pool (which is still quite big) is kept just below bathwater warmth - it's REALLY warm and you don't have to get used to the water temperature at all. There is a schedule for open swim time for the public on their website. It's around 5€ to use the pool. There are separate locker/changing rooms for men and women. Each locker room has hair dryers (1€) and lockers where you get a key in exchange for a 1€ coin that you get back, so remember your coin if you want to secure anything. The locker rooms have changing tables and wooden playpen sort of things to put your baby while you change. There are swim classes at various times during the day so it's important to understand the schedule if you want to use the pool. I've enrolled in two classes. One instructor spoke only german which is understandable. Another instructor spoke german, spanish and english. The pool facility has a website but no way to do online registration so if you plan to take a class, plan to register in person, and to get there before opening time. The queues run out the door and he wait for registration is longer than an hour. During registration, their card machine wasn't working so they were only accepting cash. All in all, it's a nice big clean pool facility but they could benefit their customers by creating online registration. After all, it's 2018. The front desk staff could also use a lesson in smiling and not being so crabby.

This place is great in the winter, especially because they have certain hours when the price is…read morelower. The problem is that during those hours it is impossible to do a work-out swim. Forget lap swimming, there are no lane lines and swimmers pretty much have to stop at each side of the pool to plan how to criss cross their way to the other side. And the late night cheap swim seems to also be the make-out-in-the-pool spot and the get-sexual-favors-in-the-corner-of-the-pool times. I haven't gone during the normal hours but if you are here as a tourist and want to see the beautiful architecture, go during the day. It is certainly worth seeing. The sauna is also affordable and charming with the old tiles, but I went on a mixed (male and female) day that was a total sausage party. Honestly, I don't care that the majority were dudes, but why they all seemed to be doing yoga moves that required spreading their legs as far as possible in the air has always baffled me. Not too pleasant when the sauna is so packed that the guy behind you is dripping on your back! For a more pleasant mixed sauna, I recommend liquidrom or this one really cool, smaller Russian owned sauna in Friedrichschain (will review soon!).
