Sport & Activities
Swim Safe @ Royal Docks Summer Splash
Children get to enjoy a fun, structured swimming session at a choice of open water locations – and learn all about how to stay safe.
The 60-minute session is run by qualified lifeguards and instructors, and includes:
- Water safety advice provided by qualified lifeguards on land.
- Up to 30 minutes in-water tuition with qualified instructors.
- All the right kit for swimming outdoors (including swimming hats, wetsuits, and swimming aids).
This event is being organised and delivered by the Royal Docks Team as part of Summer Splash, and takes place before Summer Splash opens to the public.
Participants are welcome to stay on site after Swim Safe and play in the water and the sandpit!
