Swimming

Splash’s bright and modern pool facilities are ideal for all sorts of water based activities.

The main pool is 25m (which can be used to host swimming events), the small pool is ideal for children’s swimming lessons and the spa pool which has a Jacuzzi and a shallow area, is perfect for little ones who are making their first splashes!

The pool is most famous for its flume and wave machines which are popular with children of all ages.

Aqua Aerobics classes are also available at Splash.

You can view our range of ‘Swimming Sessions’ to the left to find more information.
