Good reasons

Swimming course on holiday

  • Learn and train in a relaxed holiday atmosphere
  • Individual lessons
  • Small groups (min. 3 participants, max. 8 participants)
  • If there are not enough children who have signed up for a group course, you can book private lessons for your child.
  • Daily training means that children learn 50 % faster than at home
  • No long journey to the pool – the course takes place in the hotel
  • If you child wants to improve their swimming technique, we recommend that you book private lessons for one or two hours

As each day of the swimming course builds on what has been learned on the previous days, it is not possible to join later on.

The swimming course takes place without parents. Experience has shown that children concentrate better when their parents aren’t there. Thank you for your understanding.

The course aim

Children will learn the breast stroke technique and be able to swim short distances. There is a particular focus on self-rescue.

Course information

What you need to know

  • Course start: upon arrangement
  • Course time: Monday to Friday, 45 mins. every day
  • The swimming course generally takes place in the morning (start between 8.00 a.m. and 8.30 a.m.) so that the children can take part in other activities afterwards.
  • We ask that parents leave the pool during the course so that their children aren’t distracted. You’re welcome to come back again 5 minutes before the end of the course to see your child’s progress.
  • Price (5-day swimming course): EUR 140 per child in the group
  • Private swimming lessons summer 2025: 30 min. lesson, price for 1 lesson € 38 for the 1st child and EUR 22 for each subsequent child

Upon request in winter

Group and private lessons are only available upon request in winter. We also want to point out that it’s very stressful for children to attend both a ski course and a swimming course. We therefore recommend that you only make use of one of the offers.
