About this activity
A big indoor family option beside the Stadium of Light, combining an Olympic-sized swimming pool with a toddler-to-eight soft-play area and the huge Atlantis Adventure pool inflatable on selected sessions. The soft play has slides and a ball pool, while the inflatable adds a more adventurous option for confident older children. Swimming, inflatable and soft-play sessions all have their own timetables, so choose the activity you want before travelling.
