Facility Reviews
The main pool is good for lap swimming and is generally uncrowded during the week There are usually no lane ropes set up. The pool is a lot busier on weekends (especially Sundays) and seems to cater for kids learning to swim. Hence,lap swimming is a bit more challenging then but you can still get a decent workout. The water has a distinctive metallic, sour taste. The change room facilities are basic, but functional and clean. Ensure you put sun block on or you will get fried!
