THE UK'S FIRST PURPOSE BUILT ACCESS FOR ALL OPEN WATER SWIM LAKE AND WELLBEING CENTRE
The Ocean Walker Academy
Swimming, Water Sports, Fitness & Wellbeing Centre
Nestled on the edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds, Ocean Walker Academy is a purpose built swimming and wellbeing centre with the primary goal to provide a variety of physical and mental activities to facilitate fitness and wellbeing.
The 17 acre site includes a stunning 7 acre lake with four islands and 3 acres of elevated landscaped garden to provide beautiful viewing points.
WHAT'S ON
In addition to our regular activities, we have some great events lined up for you this year.
In addition there is a multi-use activity barn with an indoor endless pool for swim technique training/water therapy and gym. The second half of the barn is a multi use space for conferences, exercise classes and weddings. The barn has glass fronted sliding doors and outside seating area for panoramic views of the lake both inside and out.
The centre is situated in a secluded spot away from light pollution and busy roads which is why it is the ideal spot for activities such as swimming, pilates, yoga, sound healing and other mind healing activities.
When we are not running activities such as open water swimming or kayaking on the lake, the venue is privately hired out. We are a bookings only venue (sorry we can't take walk-ins), so please do check on the activity pages where you can find dates and times available for you to come and visit.
Regular open water swimming sessions BOOKINGS NOW OPEN, in our stunning purpose built Crystal Lake.

The Ocean Walker Academy project has been partially funded by the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development: Europe investing in rural areas.
The funding has helped us to convert a disused Goat Farm into:
A specialist swim training centre with purpose built open water swimming lake, indoor heated endless pool for swim stroke analysis, overnight accommodation plus a multi-use indoor space for classes, workshops and conferencing.
