Our comment from FitFit UK about Beacon Leisure Centre:

Beacon Leisure Centre in Burntisland, United Kingdom, offers a fantastic experience for families, featuring exciting flumes and a wave machine that are popular among children. Many visitors appreciate the friendly and helpful staff who contribute to a welcoming atmosphere. The centre is praised for its affordability and convenient parking options, making it easy for families to enjoy a fun day out.

However, some users have noted areas needing improvement, particularly regarding cleanliness in the changing rooms and at times, the temperature of the pool. An occasional shortage of staff has led to closures of certain attractions, which can be frustrating for those eager to enjoy all that the centre has to offer.

Overall, Beacon Leisure Centre is a lovely place to spend time with family, providing plenty of fun activities for children while maintaining a beautiful view of the beachfront.

Lauren 11 months ago

Positive experience: Pretty strange layout, having to walk through dirty floors in the locker area and up an outside staircase to get to flumes and then you have to come down a set of stairs when you get off. Wouldn't say it's the safest. The mini pool at the top of the blue slide was also minging. Certainly not the cleanest leisure centre we've been to, changing rooms are dirty. Most of the showers didn't work and were also a bit grotty. All of the above being said my wee one loved it and was none the wiser of the cleanliness. He loved playing under the bridge and with the activities on the wall in the shallow end. He also really enjoyed the waves and the slides.

Beacon Leisure Centre

Hi Lauren, we pride ourselves on our high levels of cleanliness, although it does sound like they have fallen short on this occasion. We will be sure to pass this comment to the management team for review. Fife Sports and Leisure Trust manage this pool and several others within Fife. Having stairs to access the flumes is quite common, our health and safety teams visit our venues regularly so we are confident that these are safe. We are glad that your son enjoyed his visit, and we hope the unsatisfactory cleanliness on this occasion does not put you off visiting again in the future.

Erika Wilson 1 year ago

Positive experience: It's a bit run down. I hate the fact you can't communicate with your child while they're in the pool. Trying to get them out is a night mare. The locker keys are attacked to horrible buckle straps so you can secure the key around your wrist. They're all twisted and un comfy. We got moved here for swimming lessons as our local Cowdenbeath pool is closed for refurbishment. I miss Cowdenbeath pool. I miss the staff. The staff here aren't very friendly and not very approachable . I phoned them on sat to ask a question. No one answered and I'm still waiting for a call back after leaving a message on the answer phone.

Nathan Elliott 1 year ago

Negative experience: You can't book pool online and the phone never gets answered. Turn up and there is a queue out the door. Eventually find out you had to turn up early in person to book a ticket (get a numbered card). Staff well out of their depth. Shame as the pool seems nice

Beacon Leisure Centre
Beacon Leisure Centre

Hi Nathan, during the school holidays the pool is far busier than normal. For customer safety we can not exceed the maximum number of swimmers in the pool. When we reach capacity we offer customer the option to wait, if they take this option tickets are then handed out. Please note this is not something that customers can book in advance, it is offered on a first come first served basis. If you are unable to get through on the phone you should have an option to leave a voicemail and the reception team will call you back. We do understand your frustration about managing to get into the pool and we would like to apologise for any inconvenience.

Fantastic experience: We went for the first time on a Saturday after driving 40 mins from Edinburgh. Better than any pool in the capital and worth the drive! Changing areas were clean and the pool was warm. The young staff are fantastic, and the sauna/steam room were perfect! Flumes were brilliant. Even the hair dryers were great! (Cost 20p) Only down side was the wave machine was not working but that didn't matter. All in all a great experience!

Positive experience: Plenty of parking, nice receptionist and helpful pool assistants. Facilities were spot on and the little one enjoyed it. Only thing that let it down was one member of staff that was very aggressive that let the whole experience down. Having a customer facing role does not allow anyone to approach someone in that manor.

Cindy Sinclair 1 year ago

Negative experience: Would give no stars if i could, absolute joke of a place , this pool is constantly closing due to lack of staff 3 wks out of the last 5 i have not been able to swim due to no staff, very frustrating as they dont open till 11am and wont answer their phones before this so you just have to turn up and hope for the best. Absolute waste of my petrol .I was informed this morning that they put on website if pool is closed ,first time anyone has bothered to tell me that, what i cant understand though is how they know the day before that staff are not going to turn up, went to kirkaldy instead ,think this is where i will go from now on as beacon is very unreliabe

Beacon Leisure Centre
Beacon Leisure Centre

Hi Cindy, thanks for taking the time to leave a review and we are sorry about the frequently of these closures. We are short of staff and have been trying to recruit further staff for many months. Unfortunately these closures are with customer safety in mind, if we do not have enough staff the pool can not open. Many of our staff work on a casual basis, we ask them to work but if the can't manage we know this in advance and try to bring in cover. Checking the website or the Facebook page, or even giving us a quick call before you travel is the best way to avoid a wasted journey. Once again we would like to apologise for the inconvenience that these pool closures cause.

Beacon Leisure Centre
Beacon Leisure Centre

Hi Adam, thanks for taking the time to leave a review. Unfortunately due to lower than desired staffing levels, we have to close the flume. When the flume is in operation we need an extra lifeguard on poolside. We are actively looking to recruit extra staff to cover such eventualities. We would like to apologise for any inconvenience that this may cause.

Hi Gerry, sorry for the disappointment of the flumes being unavailable. Unfortunately we need a minimum number of staff to operate them safely, we have been trying to recruit staff however their is a shortage of qualified lifeguards throughout Fife and beyond.

Thanks Fife council. But yeah, wave pool isn't too intense, but fun. And the two flumes are quick and exciting for the little ones. Queues weren't bad at all. And the staff are very friendly!

Paul Mac 2 years ago

Negative experience: Absolute joke!!! Called in advance to make sure flumes were on to be told they were on till 4pm with last admission being 3pm. Drove from Oakley which isnt just round the corner, dropped my sons off at 2pm went did some shopping then picked my boys up at 3.45. No flumes on the whole duration of the visit. Could've went elsewhere had I known as that's the only reason we came. Still waiting on a call back as there were no staff to talk to for an explanation. My weekend with my boys ruined.

Beacon Leisure Centre
Beacon Leisure Centre

Hi Paul, Sorry about the unfortunate circumstances regarding your children’s recent visit. The flumes and waves were in operation as normal from 12.00pm, however at approximately 2.10pm the flumes and waves had to be switched off due to a technical issue in our plant room. This is something that was out with our control and not something that could have predicted when you originally made the call. The management team have confirmed that they have called you back and left a voicemail message with the above information. We would like to apologise about the inconvenience this may have caused. And hope this does not put you off visiting in the future.

Balfazaar 3 years ago

Positive experience: As far as leisure centres in Fife go this is the best for kids, wave machine, flumes and floats readily accessible. I'd give it that extra star if it wasn't for the chamging rooms, many locks didn't work on the changing cubicles and I had to change lockers twice because either the strap was broken so I couldn't attach it to anything or the lock just didn't work at all! Apart from that the kids had a great time and we'll be back but next time I'll be checking the locker before putting my stuff in it! (Maybe you should put signs on the doors of cubicles that don't work instead of having to go in and out to fund the ones with locks...... or maybe just fix them!)

Hi Jordanne, sorry that the flumes and waves were out of order for so long. These are now fixed however please note are limited at times due to staffing issues. Please check our Facebook page, pool timetable or call reception to check availability. Regarding the vending machines this has been reported to the vending suppliers. The company that provides our sports has been having delivery and stock issues which is having an impact in our centres, this is something that they are looking into. Cleanliness is something that we take pride in and have set very high standards, staff regularly clean the building throughout the day. If you see something that is not quite right please report this to a member of staff and they will look into it as soon as possible.

Hi Joseph thanks for taking time to leave a review. To avoid disappointment it is worth checking the pool timetable which highlights when the flumes and waves are available. However if you visited during a time when the flumes should have been available we would like to apologise for this. Occasionally for customer safety reasons we may have to stop this activity if for example we are unable to get the correct amount of staff required to cover this session. We will pass your comment on to the management team regarding the waves. We hope this does not put you off visiting again in the future.

Positive experience: Great pool with flumes and wave machine. Can be busy as a result, so pick your time to go if you want to clock up some serious lane swimming. Flumes can be notoriously fickle and are regularly out of order. Phone the centre and check if you are traveling and definitely are going for flumes, but the wave machine is fun.
