Swimming is a great way to have FUN and to improve overall physical and mental well-being. Swimming can help to improve flexibility, improve strength and co-ordination, reduce stress and is a good way to lose weight and tone up. Our pool is always supervised with qualified Lifeguards to ensure you and your family are safe at all times
At the Pavilion Leisure Centre we offer a 25m, 4 lane pool, with attached learner pool. 75 metre water slide open at peak times.
More information on accessibility.Our pool temperatures are maintained at 29 - 31degrees C, as per ISRM recommendations.
Child Admission Policy
All East Riding Council swimming pools are required to have a written policy regarding the admission and supervision of children.
The basic ratio is that in the learner pool 2 children under the age of 8 must be supervised by at least 1 adult over the age of 16.
In the main pool under 4's must be supervised on a 1 to 1 basis. 4 to 7 year olds however require 1 adult to 2 children.
During busy periods a band system will be introduced to maintain access to the pool whilst ensuring that customers have a least 1hr in the pool.
