Calypso Cove is an indoor pirate-themed waterpark with flumes and slides (Terror Torrent, Eruption, Kraken, Splash Ahoy, Sunken Galleon), diving boards (Walk The Plank) and the Barnacle Bay interactive splash/play zone. Alongside general swimming it runs pool parties, Your Swim Academy swimming lessons, Little Fins sessions for young children, Leisure Swim and Accessible Swim sessions.
The page says there is something "for everyone... for all ages and abilities", with rides listed as suitable for young children, older children, adults or families. Specific ages are not given, though some rides have height limits: Eruption requires a minimum height of 1.2m, while Sunken Galleon and Barnacle Bay have a maximum height of 1.2m.
Accessible Swim sessions are tailored to meet the needs of all swimmers regardless of ability or experience, with reduced capacity, reduced sound levels and specially trained SEN lifeguards on hand. Barnacle Bay is described as "accessible for all" with no swimming ability required, while most slides require users to walk up stairs unaided (Walk The Plank requires climbing an access ladder unaided).
Accessible Swim sessions are specially designed to offer a calming and stress-free experience with reduced capacity and reduced sound levels for those who prefer a quieter environment. Little Fins sessions introduce little ones to the water in a calm atmosphere, and Leisure Swim offers a peaceful session with no flumes, reduced capacity and a daytime timetable.
