About this activity

A seafront swimming centre with a proper family-leisure area alongside its 25m main pool and teaching pool. The leisure waters include slides, sprays, interactive water play and a family bubble spa, making this a much more playful swim than a standard leisure-centre visit. Family water availability follows the pool timetable and can differ from the building's opening hours, so check sessions before travelling.
