Sea Lanes Brighton opens to the public

The UK’s First National Open Water Swimming Centre on the beach will open to members of the public this month.

More than 1,250 members have signed up to the Sea Lanes National Open Water Swimming Centre. The 50m, six lane open air heated swimming pool will be open to members of the public on a pay per swim basis. There are also beachside cold showers and lockers available for sea swimmers to use free of charge. The business space on site is fully let. Tenants include South Downs Leisure, Swimtrek, Brighton Surf Life Saving Club, Sea Gym Brighton, Paddle People, Reach Physio Therapy and Luna Wave Yoga. Following the approval of planning in March 2021, Sea Lanes Brighton was formed by a passionate group of Brighton-based businesses and open water swimming enthusiasts and is centred on physical wellbeing and environmental sustainability. The design of the scheme also respects the adjacent Grade II Madeira Terraces. “We have been on a long journey working with the local community adapting our design to reflect Brighton’s heritage and environment whilst regenerating a derelict brownfield site with what we believe will become another iconic Brighton destination,” said Joe McNulty, Sea Lanes Brighton director.
