We’re extremely proud to support Bude Sea Pool
Built in the 1930s to provide a safe swimming environment for local people, Bude Sea Pool is a semi-natural pool, measuring 91m long by 45m wide.Created under the curve of the cliffs in a conservation area, the pool has provided a haven for free and safe bathing and other water-based activities since the 1930s.
