Whittlesea Station

Gildenburg Waters

Gildenburg Waters, Eastrea Road, Whittlesey

Outdoor Swimming and Diving

Everyone is welcome at our friendly Gildenburgh Water site. As a national dive site, we welcome divers from all diver training agencies. Please remember to bring your diver qualification cards and logbooks with you, as we may ask to see them at our discretion.

You’ll enjoy the friendly family atmosphere that has made this attractive, and important, national swimming venue so popular. A former blue clay brick pit flooded by London Brick in 1934, the site is naturally filtered, and consistently recommended by swimmers for its clear, clean, pure, deep water.
