Customers will have the opportunity to secure their spot up to seven days in advance through our online booking platform. While our Lido typically has ample capacity for walk-in guests on most days, we strongly recommend that customers make advance bookings during periods of warm weather to guarantee entry and avoid any potential disappointment.

Please note that a 3% booking fee will be applied to each ticket. For added flexibility, bookings can be transferred up to 48 hours prior to the scheduled visit by contacting our reception team. However, transfers will not be accommodated beyond this timeframe.
