All our swim sessions are pre-bookable up to 8 days in advance. Swimming is available to book online, via our mobile app or by calling our Bookings Team on 01633 627100.
Our public swims are 60 minute sessions where you will have the whole pool available to use. However, as there are other public members within the pool area we must ask that you maintain the social distancing guidelines at all times. Numbers within these sessions will vary between centres but meet all current guidance.
We offer various Free Public Swims for Under 17's and Families at Cwmbran Stadium, Pontypool Active Living Centre and Fairwater Leisure Centre.
We also offer free swim sessions for Over 60's in our Gentle Swim sessions and ALL Aqua Aerobics classes are FREE for Over 60's.
You will book for a 1-hour slot and will need to arrive beach ready (Swimwear underneath clothes) Please choose an appropriate lane for your swim ability, Slow, Medium or Fast and be prepared to move lanes if needed.
Numbers will be restricted in each lane and you will be required to follow the one-way signs.
