Most important safety rules

When staying in and around our pools, please be aware that:

  • Children under 10 must be accompanied by an adult – even if they can swim.
  • Use of the swimming pool is at your own risk. The lifeguard tries to prevent accidents and has overall supervision, but does not keep a special eye on YOUR child. The lifeguard is happy to talk to you for advice and guidance and is trained to help IF an accident occurs.
  • Children who cannot swim must be supervised by an adult, regardless of age. We strongly encourage the use of belts and/or mittens, which you will find in the swimming pool for free use.
  • To use the 25m pool, you must be able to swim 100m unaided and tread water for 2 minutes.
  • Jumping upside down in shallow water.
  • Staying under the lashes.

The pool attendant’s instructions must also be followed at all times.
