Please purchase your swim session from the Coffee Shop prior to entering the swimming pool. Children under 12 years of age may not use the swimming pool unless accompanied by a responsible adult (an adult must be aged 18 and over).
Non-residents are welcome to use the pools all year around, apart from May Half Term and the Summer Holidays, due to the capacity of guests staying on Pentewan Sands Holiday Park. From 24th - 31st May and 25th July - 29th August 2025, the pools will only be open to guests staying at Pentewan Sands Holiday Park to avoid overcrowding.
There's no need to book! Just come on down. Guests are given access on a first come first serve basis.
The Seahorse Restaurant is open every day for light bites.
Please note that opening hours can vary seasonally, please check our social channels to see current open hours.

Please be aware that the lifeguards will begin asking guests to vacate the pool at 5.45pm as the changing rooms close at 6pm.
The swimming pool is open throughout the year, however it may be impacted by the volume of guests staying on the holiday park, especially during the summer holidays when we quickly reach full capacity. Our quietest times tend to be in the early evening.
We have two indoor swimming pools at The Seahorse. Both pools have a safe maximum depth of 1.2 metres and a shallow beach area that's perfect for toddlers. The swimming pool is 18 metres in length.
Please follow the signs to The Seahorse car park where you will be able to park. An external Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) is in use in the car park, so we kindly ask that you pay on arrival using the car park machines. This is a card or cash-operated machine.
There is also an overspill car park near the main entrance to Pentewan Sands.
While we work on renovations at The Seahorse, there will be construction happening in and around the site. During this period, the pools and coffee shop will remain open.
