SYDNEY OLYMPIC PARK AQUATIC CENTRE REVIEWS

Fabulous place to take the whole family. Great value both in the water and at the cafes. Water is nice and warm. The rapid and slide were a lot of fun. Beautiful area out the back where you can sit in the sun or umbrellas and have your food and drinks. It’s a really nice place to go and have fun, relax and unwind.

Fantastic family value with top notch facilities. It might be a little dated but for a 25 year old facility it’s still pretty impressive. The family pools are heaps of fun. Perfect for toddlers and little children. There’s a big slide, rapids and a big splash bucket.

Heaps of fun for the whole family. Undoubtedly the best aquatic centre in Sydney - clean and well maintained. My 3 year old can’t get enough of it.

COOK + PHILLIP PARK POOL REVIEWS

An excellent facility offering a great experience for swimmers of all levels. The pool is clean and well-maintained, with ample lanes for lap swimming and a separate area for leisure swimmers and kids. The atmosphere is welcoming, and the staff are always friendly and ready to assist.

This seems to be the best swimming pool near the city. There are plenty of lifeguards, and they were all very friendly. I appreciated the large area for children to swim, and the facilities were clean and well-maintained. The pool is easily accessible from the city, making it a perfect spot to visit for a swim during your trip.

Fantastic 50m pool in the middle of the city. Nice and clean and not too busy. Lanes are nicely separated into slow, medium and fast. Locker rooms are clean. Rental lockers are available.
