This could be a double definition.

'where to swim and sunbathe at land's end covered' is the first definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot see how they can define each other.

'oil?' is the second definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I can't see?

'with' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for lido that I've seen before include "bathing-beach" , "Aquatic leisure centre" , "Swimming and leisure area" , "Swim here" , "Bathing pool" .)
