The main pool at Guinea Gap Leisure Centre in Wallasey remains closed while essential health and safety work is carried out. The leisure centre, based on Riverview Road, has been closed since mid 2026.

A November update from Wirral Council confirms the pool is still temporarily unavailable.

The Training Pool is open and operating on a temporary timetable.

Swimmers who would normally use Guinea Gap can use the pools at Europa Pools, Leasowe Leisure Centre, The Oval and West Kirby Concourse with an existing Invigor8 membership, or pay per visit.

Members who do not want to use another centre can ask Wirral Council to suspend their membership temporarily.

Anyone whose swimming lessons are affected will be contacted directly.

The council said: "We apologise for any inconvenience and thank you for your patience while these essential improvements are completed."

We recently reported how a Wirral man praised a Wallasey leisure centre for helping him get fitter.

Timetables for other Wirral leisure centres are on the Active Wirral website.
