Monash Aquatic & Recreation Centre

It’s been two years since my son started swimming at Monash Aquatic & Recreation Centre, and the progress has been amazing. The trainers from Minky’s Swim School are true professionals — he moved up four levels in a short span of time, which says it all. The centre itself is spacious and well-maintained, with pools suitable for all ages. The wave pool is a highlight (starts after 9am and runs every 15 minutes). It’s also great for pool parties and has an indoor canteen. There’s plenty of parking, though it can get busy during peak times — so plan ahead.

Attended this place for the Metro East District championship swimming meet. Equipped with 50m outdoor pool, this is one of the best local pool to have a race, practice or even just have fun. The outdoor pool is heated to the right temperature, so you won't feel the chill on the freezing Autumn or Winter morning. There is also an indoor pool for the one that prefer much warmer temperature but when you came out you will feel the chill.

Amazing place Sometimes does get very busy and they have to allocate some of the 50m lanes to recreational (as in you can do anything in that lane) Sometimes someone does something and the wave pool or the 25m and the LTS pool are closed Waves are very nice I love body surfing on them it feels like I'm going so fast Nice plantlife Good gym facilities (but you need to be 13 to access them) Lots of programs and clubs and stuff you can join Food is overpriced, only get if you have to be there for 3 hours or you are a lifeguard (because u could just go to Maccas) Lockers are paid only now 😔 Overall one of the best recreational centres and I reccomend to all people

New salt water pools so much easier to breathe and relaxing on the body. So many classes to choose from like water class gym or a casual swim. The outside pool is salt water much better than chlorine no chemicals in the eyes not sore and bloodshot your body feels relaxed and cleansed from the salt water very enjoyable.

The gym is very small. You charge too much for what it is. There was also someone guarding three pieces of equipment for a very long time for their own use. No one else could use it. That's poor gym etiquette and no one did anything about it.
