Be water safe and learn to swim
Water safety and swimming are key life skills everyone should learn, at any age. Auckland Council has nine swim schools across the region with affordable lessons. All our instructors are AUSTSWIM qualified.
With three beautiful harbours, more than 3000km of coastline and a few backyard swimming pools, Auckland is surrounded by water for you to swim, fish and play in. To enjoy everything Auckland has to offer, we need to know how to be safe and survive in and around water.
Make water safety a priority; find out more about swimming lessons at aucklandleisure.co.nz/activities/learn-to-swim. Our swim school at Stanmore Bay Pool and Leisure Centre is already full so make sure you get in quick!
