Restrictions
We have a weight limit of 110KG as this is the max weight for our largest buoyancy aid. Buoyancy aids are provided and required to take part.
faqs: 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!
