Are you looking for something fun to do in the Summer holidays?

You will never be short of things to do this summer because we have scheduled 34 public sessions for our new Aquatic Challengers at Lake Mac Swim Centres!

Featuring large grassed picnic spots and BBQs the pool is a perfect location for a family day out. On-site kiosks offer food and drinks to keep you refreshed, and a team of lifeguards and instructors are always present, ensuring a safe and entertaining haven for little ones.

No bookings are required. 

Cost:
  • $6.10 per child

  • $12.20 family rate (applies to dependent children under the age of 16 years for our pool floats).

  • The Aquatic Challenger public session fee is in addition to the general entry fees (Child $4.10, Adult $6.60, Family $16.80, Spectator $3.10).
