AquaZone is Warrnambool’s premier aquatic leisure and recreation center, offering a wide range of aquatic and fitness programs all under one roof. As the only public pool swimming location in Warrnambool, AquaZone provides equitable and affordable access to activities aimed at promoting physical activity and social connection within the community. With a rich history dating back to the 1960s, AquaZone has evolved from an outdoor swimming pool complex to a modern facility featuring indoor and outdoor heated pools, a gymnasium, group cycle studio, and various fitness programs.
Located on the corner of Jamieson Street and Queens Road, AquaZone has been a cornerstone of non-ocean swimming in Warrnambool for over five decades. The facility underwent a significant redevelopment in 2002, transforming it into the major indoor community aquatic and leisure center in South West Victoria. Despite facing challenges such as poor accessibility and aging infrastructure, AquaZone maintains a strong commitment to safety, evident in its impressive compliance and safety scores from recent audits conducted by Life Saving Victoria.
As AquaZone looks towards the future, the center is exploring options for either renewing or redeveloping its existing site to better serve the community’s needs. With a focus on enhancing accessibility and addressing maintenance issues, AquaZone remains dedicated to providing a welcoming environment for individuals of all ages to engage in fitness activities and enjoy the benefits of aquatic recreation.
