Are you a fan of swimming but tired of the crowded swimming pools? Well, why not go for a dip in a quirkier location. Hampstead Pond is renowned for being a famous public swimming area, where you can jump in and enjoy floating around with the ducks. There are three ponds; one for women, one for men and one as mixed. The pond is usually life guarded all year round and open from 7 am – 2.15 pm. Just remember that the pond’s water will be very cold! So, wrap up warmly once you leave.
