About Andrew Baildon's Superfish Swim Schools Benowa

Andrew Baildon's Superfish Swim Schools at Benowa is a family-run learn-to-swim and aquatic centre on the Gold Coast, set beside the Royal Pines Marina. Founded on the expertise of Olympian Andrew Baildon and swimming educator Karen Baildon, it has built a strong local reputation for nurturing confident, water-safe swimmers from babies right through to adults.

The centre teaches swimming as a life skill, with drowning prevention at the heart of its programs. Lessons run from four months of age through to adult learners, supported by squad training for developing swimmers, aqua aerobics and adult fitness classes, and public lap swimming. Parents consistently highlight patient, supportive and encouraging instructors who keep children engaged while gently building technique.

Designed with families in mind, the Benowa pool is an indoor, heated 25-metre facility with comfortable parent viewing areas, an enclosed children's play space and on-site cafe. Many families return year after year, drawn by the caring staff, the welcoming environment and the genuine pride this local business takes in looking after every swimmer who comes through the door.
