What our customers say about Bexhill Leisure Pool
I love the range of classes at KA. Now that I am working from home it's great to be able to pop in for a cheeky lunchtime work out too!.

My kids love the pool at King Alfred, both learned to swim here after COVID. The teachers are great at building kids confidence in the water.
