Water, Space, and a Touch of Competition
The Inner Harbor provides the stage typically reserved for special sports events: clear lines, open perspectives, vibrant waterfronts, and an ambiance that immediately captivates. The offering is aimed at confident swimmers, as the harbor basin is up to 3.70 meters deep. Trained lifeguards ensure safety, and water quality is regularly monitored.

The DuisPool not only focuses on movement in the water but also on encounters at the pool's edge. On-site amenities include changing facilities, lockers, and a toilet trailer; showers are not available. The offering is enhanced with various sports and participation activities that make the Inner Harbor an active meeting point on that day.

The Inner Harbor as a Perfect Backdrop
Duisburg's Inner Harbor is considered one of the most distinctive urban neighborhoods by the water. Between the marina, modern architecture, gastronomy, and promenade, an environment is created that elevates the swimming day far beyond a classic outdoor pool. It is here that athletic ease meets urban flair. ([duisburg.de](https://duisburg.de/tourismus/stadt_erleben/industriekultur/duisburger-innenhafen))
