Welcome to
Coral Bay Swim School
A small, fun and friendly private swim school with a warm and compassionate approach
BASED ON THE ISLE OF WIGHT AND STRATFORD-UPON-AVON
Coral Bay Swim School was founded by Gilly and Beckie. Two friends with their love of swimming and wanted to bring their passion and friendly family approach to the Island. Between them they have over 20 years teaching experience.
We know all our swimmers personally and pride ourselves on our warm and compassionate approach. We treat all our swimmers as individuals and are on hand to adapt our lessons or approach where possible to include all swimmers.
Achievement for all
All our teachers hold either Swim England or STA qualifications and our students learn how to swim and enjoy the water safely through the Swim England and STA awards scheme.
Our lessons offer children the chance to work towards attaining badges and certificates to highlight their progress whilst building their confidence in the water.
We are totally inclusive, and look forward to welcoming you to Coral Bay Swim School.

Testimonials
A brilliant swim school, the teachers have been so supportive and are fantastic at encouraging my kids (5 and 7 yrs) to develop their skills in the pool. Thank you to the whole team for the amazing progress my kids have made, your lessons are the best!
Both of my boys have been going to Coral Bay swimming lessons since they were babies. Gilly and Beckie along with the rest of the team are so friendly and welcoming. The lessons are very engaging and fun for the kids. With Gilly and Beckie's skills, patience and caring nature my kids have gone from being nervous and wary in the water to thriving and loving it. I can't thank them enough for what they have done for my family.
We absolutely love Coral Bay Swim School! Gilly, Beckie and the team ensure the classes are fun and engaging and they have a wonderful way of catering to each child as an individual within a group setting. Both my sons love the water and their confidence has soared - this is down to the Coral Bay team. We look forward to our lessons.
So impressed with the speed at which my children have learnt to swim. Even after the first lesson, their confidence had grown and they were so keen to get in the water. The teachers are all in the pool with the kids, which I think makes a big difference. It’s friendly, fun, and I now have 3 confident swimmers who are safe in the water. Thank you so much.
