Paddling Pools

The Council operates public paddling pools in Skegness, Mablethorpe and Sutton on Sea for residents and visitors to enjoy over the summer months. 

In 2024, the pools at Queens Park in Mablethorpe (LN12 2XA), and The Fairy Dell in Skegness (LN12 2EU) will open on Saturday 25th May in readiness for Spring Bank Holiday, remaining open through to Monday 30th September 2024.

The opening times are 10am to 6pm each day during the summer and you do not need to book to access them. At times during this period the paddling pools may be temporarily unavailable due to water quality testing and sampling, keep an eye on the East Lindsey District Council Facebook page for any updates. 

Unfortunately, due to the ongoing development work of the new Colonnade building at Sutton on Sea, the Maple Leaf pool will not be opening this year to ensure the safety of residents and visitors, returning in 2025. However, we are taking this opportunity to carry out lots of refurbishment work to the pool and will be holding a series of events in Sutton on Sea over the summer months for people to enjoy.
