Swim FAQs

The facility is a Royal Lifesaving Saving Keep Watch partner and enforces the keep watch policy.

Yes, all patrons who are wishing to swim will need to be in appropriate swimwear made from Lycra and Nylon; we do not permit regular clothes of any type in the pools. This assists us in maintaining a high-level water quality for all our patrons to enjoy.

All swimmers who are not toilet trained are required to wear a swimming nappy to assist us in avoiding pool closures. For swimmers under 3 years of age, we require them to wear a disposable swimming nappy with a reusable swimming nappy over the top. Children's disposable and reusable swim nappies are available for purchase at the Service Desk & Retail Area.
