lido
Outdoor bathing complex
A lido is a public outdoor swimming pool or a section of beach with facilities for swimming and sunbathing.
The term is primarily British, evoking municipal pools of the mid-twentieth century: The old lido has been restored to its Art Deco glory.
In cruise ship terminology, the lido deck is the area with the pool and outdoor recreation. (Capitalized Lido refers to the Italian island near Venice.)
