Fortunately the Seaside Squad are here to help! You can join them in the bar and restaurants for a lovely start to the day with food and hugs.

The Seaside Squad love to head off on all sorts of adventures and they’d like nothing more than for you to go along with them! Join the gang as they wander off to do some exploring – who knows what sort of fun and adventures they’ll get up to?

Just like us, our Seaside Squad like to celebrate their birthdays. So, if you’re on holiday with us during one of our Seaside Squad birthday breaks, then you’re cordially invited to help party with whoever is celebrating their birthday that week. There will be plenty of party dances, party games and lots of photo opportunities too!
