West Wight Sports Centre is a leisure facility in Freshwater with a 25-metre swimming pool, sports hall, and fitness suite located at Moa Place. The building houses multiple zones for swimming, exercise classes, and gym training under one roof.
The facility opened in 1977 with a swimming pool funded by the local community. Major expansion took place in 1999 following a lottery grant that brought updated facilities and additional spaces.
The facility employs more than 50 local staff members and organizes regular community events, including the Needles XC Half Marathon and Solent Swim competitions.
The centre runs over 40 weekly exercise classes, maintains multiple swimming areas, and features modern training equipment for all fitness levels. Visitors can expect reliable opening hours and straightforward access to the main activity zones.
The main pool reaches a depth of 3 metres (10 feet), making it the deepest swimming facility on the Isle of Wight. This depth supports advanced training programmes and diving activities unavailable elsewhere on the island.
