Raymond Franssen, supervisor at the province, says that a lifeguard is not mandatory for these types of swimming pools. “At a public swimming pool, yes, but this is a semi-public swimming pool. If the pool is not deeper than 1.40 meters, supervision is not mandatory,” says Franssen. The holiday park has put up signs around the pool stating that parents must supervise themselves. There are two baths on the property. One with a depth of 1.10 meters, the other is 1.40 meters deep.
