Dive into our new family pool at Bognor Regis

“It’s the best in the world” – Travel Trade Gazette

In April 2019, we opened the doors to our new family pool at our Bognor Regis resort, and it's really rather incredible! Designed to bring the best of the British seaside inside, it's complete with seaside inspired features like the Helter Skelter water slide, Seaside Garden rapids and Stick of Rock slides, to quieter areas like the lido and tots pool, perfect for building water confidence.

Over two years and with the help of 1250 people, we planned, demolished and built a pool designed entirely for families like yours, who want to experience a pool like no other.

Seaside Garden Rapids

Our Seaside Garden Rapids takes you on a journey through a rainbow of colours to a pool, at which point you must decide which part of the garden slide to take back to the main pool.

Choose the first journey that takes you along the pier past streams of festoons and flagpoles, or the second journey which twists around colourful British planting towards a sunbrella canopy.

Wave Pool

Take a dip in the pool and relax, but watch out for the tidal wave when the clock strikes the hour! With racer slides either side, this area has a great combination of calm and exhilarating moments which your whole family can enjoy together.

Stick of Rock slides

Which colour stick of rock will you choose? Line up in front of our four side by side slides and slide to the bottom. Who will cross under the stick of rock archway first?

Changing Village

“The changing rooms are a triumph” – Mail on Sunday

Working with Mumsnet, we've created family-friendly changing rooms to make your whole experience a better one. Our lido-inspired changing rooms have been brought right up to date with modern features including underfloor heating to keep the floor dry (so no more soggy socks).

You’ll also find seats to safely strap little ones in while you get changed, parent and child height showers and much bigger cubicles and lockers than you’d normally find - we’ve tried to think of everything to make your life easier.

Don't just take our word for it...

“The design is flawless” – The i

“The most family-friendly swimming pool in Europe” - Yahoo

“You have to try this pool” – The Star

“To describe it as a swimming pool is to do it a disservice, as it is more of an indoor water playground” – Eastern Daily Press

“We went back again and again” – Brighton Argus

Our new pool is 6,300 sqm which is 1,500 sqm bigger than the original pool at Bognor Regis.

How much did the new pool cost?

We know how important an amazing swimming pool is to you and your family and what an impact it makes on your break; that's why we've invested a huge £40 million building our new pool.

In any pool area within the new pool, there must be one adult to two children for any child under the age of 8 years, and for any child under the age of 14 years who is either a weak or non-swimmer.

How many rides and slides are there?

There are seven brilliant rides in our new pool, including some extra special seaside-themed ones.

If I don't want to go on the rides or in the wave pool, is there somewhere I can swim?

Absolutely. We have a lovely lido area for swimming and relaxing that's away from the wave pool and slides.

Yes, the pool will be open on every break but times may vary.

Is there somewhere to relax, poolside?

Around our lido area, you'll find loungers and four beautiful seaside huts for relaxing.
