Swimming in Bath

Swimming’s a great way to have fun and get active, whatever your age or fitness level.

At Bath Sports & Leisure Centre we have three swimming pools. Our main pool is a six lane 25m main swimming pool, providing a space for leisure swims and lane swimming. We also have a smaller teaching pool that's dedicated to our Swim School, swimming lessons programme. Finally, we have a heated leisure pool, with flume and water play features, ideal for an afternoon of family fun in the water.

When it comes to developing your skills, teaching your child, holding a party or just having fun, there’s never been a better time to take the plunge.
