Hervey Bay Aquatic Centre

Oh my cod, let me tell you, the staff at this place are top-notch! They're so friendly and helpful, they could make a grumpy old sea bass crack a smile. And don't even get me started on the pools, they're so well-maintained you could practically see your reflection in the water (if you don't mind looking like a bloated blowfish, that is). But the real catch of the day? Their hot chips! They're so crispy and delicious, you'll want to keep eating them until you're stuffed like a sardine. So if you're looking for a place with great staff, awesome pools, and some seriously tasty treats, this is the plaice for you!

Well organised. Clear water. Systematic enrolment and alm safety measures are taken. Qualified instructors for the new learner.

An incredibly supportive team environment.Aquatic aerobics classes professionally run and the indoor hydrotherapy learn to swim pool is super for all levels of disability or cognitive impairment.What a great team of instructors and swim coaches.

Open, clean spaces that are well maintained. Very clean facilities and pleasant staff. Plenty of seating and shade.

Friendly staff! We went at 5.30 pm for a quick swim on a weekday night in winter and found the indoor very busy due to lessons but still enough room for a swim :)

Lovely people, great environment, great pools, overall great experience

3 different sized pools here and heated aswell, with rehab lanes , great public pool ...

This is a great aquatic centre. There's a lovely little paddle pool for the little kids with two shaded areas for when the sun is beating down, and a big tipper bucket that splashes all the older kids and parents if you get under at the right time. There's a big 50m lap pool with one lane open for playing around, and this pool is the one that hosts aqua aerobics and Zumba classes in the mornings. There's an undercover pool that's always very warm, with a lane dedicated to playing and the others for swimming laps. There's also a heated indoor rehabilitation pool, which also allows babies under 2 in with one parent at a time. It's great for those little ones who get too cold too quickly in the other pools. There are plenty of grassy areas, a barbecue area for hosting birthday parties, some areas shaded by trees, some shaded by sails. There's a change area, a cafe, and plenty of benches to have a seat before or after swimming. Wonderful to have such great amenities close to home!

Hydotheropy pool good but needs to be deeper other pool good
