Pool Availability
Welcome to our pool availability timetable. This quick and easy-to-read snapshot provides live and accurate lane availability info for all our pools. It’s simple; green means we have lots of space, yellow means we are kind of busy but still have space and red means our pool is closed or fully booked. If a number is displayed, that will be the number of lanes available at that specific time. It’s that easy! Now, dive on in and enjoy!
