Notes
One of the two indoor pools is restricted to adults only; by default, that leaves the other to the kids. That's fair in our book.
Facility Reviews
In spring and autumn, it's cold enough to keep most of the patrons away, but still a balmy 25°C in the outdoor pool.
One of the best-kept secrets in Sydney - a Mecca for lap swimmers… The staff are a little surly, but with good reason: the line of thekiosk is generally filled with short-tempered mothers lumbered with too many kids…
Rating: 7.5 out of 10. A nice combination of pools that always give you a chance to lap swim.
