West Wallsend is an indoor heated swim centre with one 25-metre pool operating year-round. West Wallsend Swim Centre is located within the residential area of West Wallsend.
This pool has taught thousands of children learn to swim and is popular with aqua fitness, lappers and water walkers through-out the year.
A friendly place to visit for all your aquatic needs in the comfort of an indoor facility.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION: Wednesday and Thursday (between 5pm and 7pm), and on Saturday (between 7am and 11am), only limited lap swimming will be available. No play swim area will be available due to this being our busy programming time. We apologise for any inconvenience.
IMPORTANT FACILITY INFORMATION - We are expanding West Wallsend Swim Centre to include a new learn-to-swim pool. The project will construct a new separate learn to swim pool that will complement existing aqua fitness, recreational and lap swimming in the existing 25 metre pool. The project will go out for tender in late 2024, and construction will take place in early to mid-2025. Every effort will be made to keep the existing pool open during construction, however there may be some short-term closures for specific activities, but these will be communicated in advance. For more information this this project visit Council's Shape Lake Mac website.
