Women-only swimming
Two arrangements let you swim among women in France: time slots reserved by a pool, and hiring a private pool by the hour. HerWhere documents 4 venues of this kind, each with the exact sentence the venue used.
Two very different arrangements
A reserved slot is a public or association pool that sets aside hours for women. It depends on the operator and can change from one season to the next.
Private hire is a pool rented by the hour, usually at someone's home, through a booking platform. You choose who comes, so the dress question does not arise.
Why it matters for covering swimwear
In a women-only setting the rule is often simply absent: several venues told us any swimwear is accepted. That makes these the least uncertain places in the whole directory.

Frequently asked questions
Are women-only slots legal in France?
They exist in practice, in municipal and association pools, and their organisation is decided locally. HerWhere records what each venue publishes or answers, without taking a position.
How do I find one near me?
Ask your municipal pool directly, and look at private pool hire platforms. HerWhere lists the venues that have confirmed their arrangement in writing.
