Open Water Swimming
Escape the ordinary and dive into our magical saltwater lake, where every stroke takes you further from the everyday hustle and closer to pure bliss. Picture yourself swimming in natural saltwater as the morning sun warms the surface, or enjoying an evening dip while the kids play on the beach nearby. Whether you’re here for an invigorating workout or a gentle float with the family, our warm, welcoming waters offer the perfect recipe for making waves and memories that last long after you’ve dried off.

Dive In, Breathe Deep, Feel Alive
Feel the Freedom, Taste the Salt, Love the Lake
There’s nothing quite like that first moment when you slip into our saltwater lake – it’s warmer than the sea, gentler than a pool, and somehow makes every swim feel like a mini adventure. Fed naturally from the sea, our 6-acre lake is a haven for water lovers of all ages and abilities, where nervous newcomers find their confidence and seasoned swimmers discover their happy place.
Families on a Mersea holiday love starting their mornings with a refreshing dip before breakfast at The Lake House, while locals have made our sunset swims their favourite way to unwind. With lifeguards keeping watch, dedicated swimming zones for safety, and that natural saltwater buoyancy making every stroke easier, you’ll wonder why you haven’t been swimming here all along. Best of all, when you’re done, there’s a sandy beach to relax on and plenty of space for the whole family to enjoy the day together.
