As a kid this experience is totally a 5 star, pee in the pool with excitement experience, there is a little cafe where you can have chips and fizzy pop with your friends after hours of fun in the pool. As an adult, it holds all the excitement but doesn't quite deliver. We are grown-ups after all and a big plastic snake is only believable up to a point. It's worth it if you really like flumes though as they are pretty fast. I was call in advance first as sometimes they don't have enough staff to have them all open at once.

The Centre offers several swimming pools, a great family pool with a wave machine and log flume, a brilliant olympic size swimming pool and another with driving boards. If you don't fancy swimming, and have small children, then polar adventure is a great place to take the kids to play, with a large soft play area and ice hill slides. Its also a great place for kiddies birthday parties. The leisure centre also has a large multipupose sports hall a great gym facilities, and a health suite with sauna and spa. Great place for a family day out!

Brighton has many health clubs but this is arguably the best. The one problem is it's location as…read moreit is a few miles away from any sort of housing by car. This then leads to the argument that if your guna drive to the gym to go for a run you might as well just go for a run. However, it is the whole set of facilities that make every session that little bit better. With indoor/outdoor swimming pools, a great gym, tennis courts, badminton courts, physios, steam room, sauna and spa but to name a few, the facilities are vast. I always feel that if you are going to do fitness you need to do cardio and weight training as both are necessary for good all round fitness. Then you need a reward which is when the sauna and steam rooms come in. This place isn't cheap but if you go on the website you can get a free days membership so you can see what your missing out on. Creche facilities as well so having kids is no excuse!!!

A must for art deco lovers and bathing beauties, Saltdean Lido is a fabulous, art deco lido that…read morehas been open since the 1930s. Designed by the architect R WH Jones, it's a stunning, two storey building that looks like the front of an ocean liner with curved windows and a long, sweeping balcony. There's sun terraces with loungers, a curved pool big enough to fit five hundred swimmers in and a smaller, child friendly pool. Since being refurbished to a high standard at the end of the nineties, there's also a cute cafe selling tea and cakes, changing rooms and toilets - which should all help you brave the biting winds and try your hand at some front-crawl of breast-stroke. Naturally, this being England the Lido is shut in the Autumn and Winter and re-opens annually every Spring til mid September. There's direct buses from Churchill Square in Brighton and if its a windy day, it's well worth phoning in advance to check the pool is definitely open.

One half-hour session at MXT cured them of any nervousness of the water, and now they are nearly the best swimmers in their class in year 3! Molly still enjoys her swimming lesson every week, and is learning proper stroke techniques, racing dives to start, and even beginning tumble turns. She has achieved here 400 metre award. Tom enjoys his swimming so much he now has two lessons a week. He has achieved his 600 metre award, and now needs more than half an hour to get his 800. His stoke is nice and efficient, so he can keep going for a long time! MXT may seem expensive per lesson, but the rate of progress and value gained means their value-for-money score is very high. Just one or two sessions (or perhaps a week of five intensive half-hour lessons) is enough to turn someone who is terrified of water into a happy swimmer.
