Welcome to Paddlefish Pools!

We are a private pool in Ripley, Surrey and we have an option for you. Whether that is somewhere quiet to just swim or work on your technique, or somewhere to push the pace without worrying about others in the lane or maybe you want a teacher or coach to help you improve your technique. We have the answer for you.

The facility is also available for qualified teachers and coaches to hire for their own swimmers.
