About this event

For the summer of 2025, the Leitrim Water Safety committee is streamlining all events in the county. This means there will be the same number of classes per area, pricing structures, and number of days to complete lessons. We know this is a change, but the committee felt this was important for consistency across the county. We are therefore strongly recommending for all Seal and Marlin swimming classes students attend for two weeks of lessons. This is so that they become strong and competent at each level before progressing. From the summer of 2025, all lifesaving courses (Safety and Rescues) will be mandatory for two weeks. This decision was made at our recent AGM.


Parents are required to stay and are responsible for their children when out of the pool

Please note times are approximate and may be subject to change. You will be contacted via email if there is a change.
