Swimming pools for a splashing good time

Welcome to the Haven hub of all things pools at our holiday parks. We’re experts in giving our guests a splashing good time when they’re away with us, and here you’ll find a whole range of pools with exciting experiences for the whole family. See what makes our pools one of the premier attractions on park, and with indoor and outdoor areas at many, there’s great variety too. And that’s before we get to our lazy rivers and water parks, places that raise the level a notch and make the memories even more special.

What's new in our pools

Kent Coast, Kent

We're giving the pool entrance and changing rooms a fresh look, to make taking a dip in the heated indoor pool even more inviting! Splashing onto park ready for summer, 2024 (subject to plans) - the swimming pool remains open throughout. Book your 2024 break to Kent Coast.

Craig Tara, Scotland

Experience the lights and sights of the exciting new flume at Craig Tara. A first for Haven, the new slide features three crystal clear sections, so you'll be able to watch your friends and family zooming down the flume, or wave to your pals in the pool as you travel down. Experience Craig Tara and book your 2024 break.

Hopton, Norfolk

In 2023, we massively increased the swimming options for all guests. To do this, we placed a state-of-the-art roof structure over the existing outdoor swimming pool and revamped the entire area to provide much more capacity for a splash and swim with the loved ones. Take a look at what's in store and start booking your 2024 break to Hopton.

Indoor Pools

Our indoor pools come in all shapes and sizes; from our Feature Indoor Pools that are the place for a drenching to calmer Simple Indoor Pools that are great for practicing your strokes. Simply put, our indoor pools offer a splashing good time for all.

There are also a couple of special indoor and outdoor connecting pools to double the fun when the weather plays ball.

Water Parks

We’ve invested in our water parks to make them nothing short of wave-tastic, so the fun never gets old!

Places like the £6.5 million Shore Water Park at Seashore in Norfolk offer some of the best water-based fun in the country, and there are also incredible experiences to be had at our Splashaway Bays, and our Adventure Pool on the Yorkshire coast.

Enjoy water parks at these Haven resorts:

Outdoor Pools

Nothing says ‘holiday’ quite like a sun-kissed dip in an outdoor pool. Our pools are on hand to give you just this experience, and are a particularly popular hit on our parks, at least when there’s no water falling from above!

We’ve got Simple Pools to practice your strokes, Larger Pools for a bit more space, and pools with added flumes, slides and much more.

Lazy Rivers

The lazy rivers at our holiday parks are an ever-popular choice with guests looking to relax and unwind with the loved ones. This chilled out water wonder glides you along its path, allowing you to float and take in the surroundings.

Some coolly connect two pools, others sit amongst the slides and a number have powerful poolside jets for you to make a pit stop at. There are also a couple of indoor lazy rivers at our Splashaway Bay water parks.
