Thought swimming was just for summer, think again. All the pools are heated at the Cotton Tree
Aquatic Centre, usually around 28-30 degrees and the 25 meter pool is enclosed to make it even more cosy.
Check Them Out
You thought pool laps was the focus, well think again - adult fitness squads, hydrotherapy, aqua aerobics and stroke correction classes with some child minding to make it more feasible. Something for everyone and exercising in the water is less strain on our aching joints so particularly good for the aged and ailing.
The Olympic Pool
Give more serious thought to this fun way of improving your strength and fitness whilst burning fat and increasing your body tone. Some workouts are done to songs you will know and they are all under the guidance of well-qualified coaches/instructors. Or paddle about at your own pace or enjoy the rhythm of doing laps.
The Entrance to Fitness Heaven
Please check out their website for all times and costs – winter hours are from April to September and they are only marginally less than the summer hours. Public Holidays are 9am – 3pm.
Basketball or Table Tennis
Where is the complex – next door to Cotton Tree
Park opposite Harvest
Breads Cafe and right out front are the two public table tennis tables and half basketball courts. You do need to supply your own bats and balls or join in a game already under way. There are plenty of trendy cafes and boutiques just opposite to indulge your foodie habits afterwards.
