How long can I swim for?

Most Swim for Fitness or Swim for All sessions last up to 50 minutes, unless otherwise stated. Shorter swims may be offered at the end of the day - typically 40 or 30 minutes, depending on how close the session is to closing time. Last entry is 30 minutes before the centre closes. On quieter days, you may be able to stay a bit longer, but during busy periods, please stick to your booked time slot to help us manage capacity.
