Tynemouth Swimming Pool is located on the corner of Beach Road/Preston North Road in North Shields. It offers facilities such as a large swimming pool, small swimming pool, gym and health suite. Other than general public swimming, the pool activities also include; private swim lessons, inflatable fun, aquafit classes, ladies only classes and parent and tot sessions. Tynemouth Pool has recently been refurbished and has had a 'boom' added to the large pool which allows the length of the pool to be altered depending on the activities which is quite cool. The changing areas, although regularly cleaned, could still do with updating. I've been going to the pool for over 20 years and the same tiles are on the floors and walls. The admission prices are fairly reasonable and discounts are offered for people owning an 'EASE' card. The pool has a free car park and is accesible by public transport, however the nearest metro station is North Shields which is quite a walk! read more
