Family Swim Holidays
The perfect holiday for all the family
What are Family Swim Holidays?
Family Swim Holidays are designed for families who want to enjoy a relaxing getaway while keeping active.
While young swimmers receive top-level coaching from former Olympians, parents and non-swimmers can unwind in beautiful surroundings — or join in with their own activities. It’s the ideal combination of quality training for the kids and personal time for the grown-ups.

Boost confidence, improve technique, and make lasting friendships
For Parents & Non-Swimmers:

-
Peace of mind knowing your children are in expert hands
-
Opportunity to be part of the experience, without stepping into the pool

What to expect
In the pool
Training sessions will be heavily technique focused, incorporating all four strokes as well as workshops focusing specifically on the core aspects of every race:
Starts
Turns
Underwaters
Finishes
Although swimmers will work hard in order to improve, all sessions are organised creatively to ensure enjoyment. Training in this way creates an effective environment where swimmers are having fun whilst learning, and take a great attitude about their sport back to their own home club.
Outside of the pool
Although this is a swim holiday, we offer so much more! As you can see in the table (and on the example itinerary on the brochure), outside of training we have a fun-filled schedule with lots of fun activities perfect for the whole family, along with plenty of free time to relax. Lastly, our presentation evening is the perfect way to end your fun-filled holiday where you can say “see you next year!” to your new coaches and friends.

Thank you and all the coaches for making our first BEST Centre holiday such a memorable one. On our final day, at the awards evening, it felt like we’d known everyone for months not just ten action-packed days. The whole Nugent family had the best holiday that we could have imagined.
