The city of Cambridge has some very well established wild swimming spots including Newnham Riverbank Club, Granchester Meadows and the Jesus Green Lido.
There are numerous restaurants and cafes throughout the City to cater for all budgets and tastes. The market in the city centre is also well worth a visit.
Around Cambridgeshire, Peterborough has outdoor swimming available at Ferry Meadows and the Peterborough Lido but throughout the county, we have listed some alternative swim spots with some of our favourite after swim options.
We have included the Lat / Long Coordinates and "What Three Words" locations for each.
