Awesome pool. I've been twice so far and my goal is to get there every day. Perfect temperature so far. Lanes for swimmers and a wide lane for walkers/talkers. 😁 Lovely clean change room with push button showers inside and some outside also. Couldn't be better. And under cover but ability to open sides to let fresh air in.

“My son does swimming lessons here. Have found all instructors to be great. I took off 1 star for each of the let downs. Today when I was in there the lady at the counter was rude. (first time I have had this issue in the 2 terms we have been coming) Also it would be better if the sign in fob was by the gate like the Greerton pools to let you in. There Have been multiple times where my son is late because someone is at the counter signing up or with a long enquiery and there is a line to sign in that can take 5 to 10 mins just to get in the door. Having a fob should be the quick way if it was by the door or the gate that would mean there was no hold up. On a positive note the lifeguard with the short black/dark brown hair is amazing. My son really respects her and she is always very patiently reminding him of pool safety rules.”
