We are SUPER EXCITED to announce a short notice DIP n DINE event for Friday 26th June at 6 pm.

Arrival from 5.30 pm - swim from 6 pm - water closes at 7.30 pm

This is a TICKETED EVENT and includes an 'off menu' meal prepared by the kitchen who have confirmed they are going all GREEK for the night with fresh salads, chicken kebabs and flat breads (vegan/veg alternatives available if pre booked).

All served STREET FOOD STYLE - there will be the usual 'chef surprises' as well we are sure... those that have been before know how quickly these amazing events sell out and how great the food is... pictures of previous events for reference.

It is possible to ADD FOOD ONLY GUESTS when you check out from the session on the Fit by WIX booking app but guest passes are limited so be quick!

£25 per person to include SWIM & FOOD (swim is for members only but its not too late to sign your friends up for summer swimming!) FOOD ONLY for GUESTS joining a MEMBER is possible at £20 p.p. (added at CHECKOUT on the APP).

BRING YOUR OWN BOTTLE if you want... we do not have an alcohol licence but you are free to bring your own.

PLEASE NOTE: If you have a VIP or PREMIUM SEASON TICKET then please check out using the correct listing on the app where you will be able to add a MEAL if you want one and a PLUS ONE if required at a discounted price.

This is just what we needed at the end of the predicted HOTTEST WEEK ever... Be there or be square!

WHAT. A. DAY.

That weekend was a bit of a blur to be honest… it landed with some warm winds and an increase in temperature and you certainly knew how to take advantage!

500 of you took to the calm, clean waters of activities away for a swim while a couple of 100 chose to paddle board, kayak and doggie dip!

We provided more bacon sandwiches than we thought possible and kept calm (but not so cool!) in the kitchen!

Stand by for the hottest of weeks and a surprise swim session to be announced!

Did you make the swimmy photo shoot… the staff did… they all jumped in at the end of the day 😂

Pick designated swimming spots, learn about riptides and don't use inflatables at the beach, experts say.

Standby for phase two of our ‘SWIM SAFE’ initiative for young people in the summer holidays when we launch our POOL PARTY session as an alternative to jumping in local lakes with no safety cover 😉

A reminder of what makes a successful swim at activities away -

1, Make sure you have read the NEW MEMBERS GUIDE at www.owswim.uk found under the FAQ tab

2, Make sure you have completed the SUMMER 2026 SIGN UP found via the link on the home page.

3, Make sure you have BOOKED YOUR SWIM using the FIT BY WIX booking app as per the instructions in the NEW MEMBERS GUIDE (see point one above).

What you will get in return…

Absolutely the best water quality around, crystal clear rain water that is tested every month and on the same scale as drinking water.

Absolutely the best cakes, coffee and freshly prepared food.

Absolutely the best safety cover with proven emergency response.

Absolutely a commitment to educate our youth in what to do if they enter water either accidentally or on purpose and find themselves in difficulty this summer….

We welcome everyone… and simply ask that you are pre signed and have booked your swim through the app

Another amazing weekend at OWswim.uk - we welcomed well over 500 of you through the facility this weekend and it was great to see so many new faces… welcome!

We delivered swim sessions, SUP sessions, water safety sessions and even found time to host a major swimming event!

The cafe turned out an endless supply of food and proper coffee and the safety staff looked after each and every one of you 😉

It was so much fun… let’s do it all again next weekend when the sun is set to return!

We have had a phenomenal response to our water safety sessions and we are committed to bringing the safety message to as many young people as possible prior to the summer holidays.

Today we had the BBC on site filming for a news report likely to air on Thursday… tomorrow morning we are on the BBC Radio Lincolnshire breakfast show around 7.10 am… it’s great to get the word out but please bear with us while we find available water time to fit these life saving sessions into our programme… keep an eye on our socials and website for details as session dates go ‘live’.
