Safe. Fun. Splash-Ready.

Confident Little Swimmers on the Costa del Sol

At Kidtastic Costa del Sol, we specialise in small, focused swim classes designed to give your child the best possible chance of staying safe in and around water. Our lessons focus on essential water safety and survival skills, taught in a gentle, play-based way that builds confidence and encourages a positive relationship with the water.

We offer swim classes starting from 4 months old, with many of our baby and toddler sessions being parent-accompanied. This approach not only supports your child’s development but also empowers you with hands-on knowledge and practical tools to help keep them safe around water.

Lessons are available in English, Swedish, and Spanish, and we proudly provide options for children with special educational needs (SEN) and disabilities, as well as stroke development classes for older children ready to refine their technique.

For added convenience, we offer private swim lessons either at our partner locations or in the comfort of your own home or accommodation — perfect for families visiting or living on the Costa del Sol who want personalised, flexible swim instruction.

Whether you’re local or here on holiday, Kidtastic Costa del Sol is here to help your child gain confidence in the water while giving you peace of mind through professional, caring instruction.
