Boldon Dive Centre offers a dedicated pool area for our Swimfun classes. The pool is maintained at a comfortable swimming temperature of approximately 31 degrees Celsius and has a slope, making it ideal for deeper water activities and learning to dive.

All swim aids are provided and used to develop technique and introduce new skills.

While not compulsory, we recommend swimming hats for children with long hair to ensure safety and comfort in the water.
