Unfortunately we do not allow any animals on site, except guide dogs.
On busy days we operate a wristband system, which allows us to control bather numbers in the pool and maintain customer safety.
This system means customers will be asked to exit the water for a period of time, whilst band colours are rotated - you do not have to leave the site.
Once the pool is full we implement a one in one out system at our entry gate, when this happens please expect long queues. On hot days remember to bring water.

The Big Dog Ferry runs between Beccles Lido and Geldeston Locks Inn
A relaxing 3 mile boat journey along the River Waveney
Disembark and enjoy a meal or drink at The Locks Inn, or stay on board for the round trip. If you're feeling energetic then take a one-way ticket and walk back along the riverside footpath.

We offer canoe hire from the Lido in association with TheCanoeMan
Enjoy a canoe trip upsteam from the lido on one of the most attractive and unspoilt stretches of the River Waveney. Dependent on how fast you paddle, the journey to The Locks Inn, where you can stop for a meal or drink, will take about 1.5 hours each way. Fancy a longer trip? The stretch of river above The Locks Inn to Ellingham is unnavigable to other craft so you can lose yourself in the peace and tranquillity of the wonderful river and it's wildlife
Advance bookings only - please visit The Canoe Man website for more information and to book or email info@thecanoeman.com
