The best outdoor pools promise first-class quality at fair prices, as Buzzfeed reports. The travel portal TUI has created an exciting outdoor pool ranking based on user reviews.
This year, the top of the list is headed by the Caprima adventure pool in Dingolfing, Bavaria. With a score of 8.557, the pool not only impresses with its regeneration options, but also with a family-friendly price of just 10 euros for a family day ticket and 4 euros for adults.

It looks like the Bavarian outdoor pools are ahead in the ranking. Of the 25 best pools, 12 come from Bavaria. This is also reflected in the new pool atlas, which lists over 3,000 pools in Germany, of which 2,416 are purely outdoor pools. Interactive maps show the best pools in different regions. In addition to the popularity of outdoor pools, Germans' increased interest in vacations at home also contributes to the high demand for day trips: 29% of Germans plan to vacation in Germany in 2025 and 27% go swimming at least once a month, as TUI notes.
The swimmers are particularly excited about an outdoor pool that is only accessible to women. This reflects the trend that more and more outdoor pools are developing special offers for different target groups.
In summary, it can be said that a visit to the top outdoor pools is definitely worth it. Whether you're in Lower Saxony or elsewhere in Germany, the water is calling, and the low prices make it worth it for the whole family - a perfect destination for this summer!
