FAQs
Q : Can I use my own equipment?
A : Often yes – our instructors just need to check it over to make sure it is safe and suitable for the session. We always err on the side of caution so if there are any concerns regarding your own kit you will be asked to use ours which we have up to date safety records for.
Q : Is there car parking?
A : Yes, we have a free to use carpark with more free street parking on Boron Street (road directly up the hill from the main gates)
Q : Are there showers and hair dyers?
A : We have changing facilities with hot showers but no hair dyers. We do have outside plugs if you wish to bring your own.
Q : How cold is the water?
A : This changes from day to day as it is an outdoor unheated (but filtered!) pool. But probably cold tbh – know your limits especially in winter!
Q : Do I need to wear a wetsuit or buoyancy aid?
A : While both wetsuits and buoyancy aids are provided only buoyancy aids must be worn. You may prefer/be more conformable in a tshirt and shorts than a wetsuit however you are much more likely to get cold even in warmer weather. Please be aware of your limits in cold water.
Q : Is there a coffee machine?
A : No, bring your own flask if you would like a hot drink for after!
