Why learn to swim?
Learning to swim means you gain fitness, have fun, and learn essential life skills. At BaySwim we teach Tauranga locals of all abilities, young and old, how to be safe and confident around the water.

School Age Swimming
For 5-16 years
These swimming classes run five days a week during term time and have a strong focus on developing swimming technique – they’re run by ability rather than by age.

It’s never too late to learn to swim! We offer weekday lessons over three levels; beginners, improvers and technique. Private lessons are also available!
Developed by Olympians.
Our swim school follows the multi-award-winning Northern Arena programme, specially developed by NZ Olympic Swimmers, Dean Kent and Mark Saunders.
Stay & Play
Our Swim School offers unrivalled value for money. After each lesson, BaySwim students are free to stay and play in our pools and they can come back and practice and play at any time for free! BaySwim students also get to swim for free at Otumoetai Pools and Memorial Pools too.
