  • Dickson Aquatic Centre
Come and enjoy Dickson Aquatic Centre's pools set amongst beautiful shady trees, beach volleyball courts, a Massage Centre, café and free car parking.

Take in the beautiful fresh air and sunshine and cool off from the searing summer heat. Let the kids loose on the children's water slide. Relax with a weekend or afternoon barbeque with friends and family.

Benefit from the vigour and solitude of some lap swimming for fitness or training. The coolest place to swim, splash and play all summer long!
