Northcote Aquatic and Recreation Centre

The renovation and the rebuild of this pool and gym was very successful, definitely an improvement to the previous gym and pool when it use to be owned by YMCA. Both the exterior and interior look very modern and very good compared to the previous. Inside the interior of the pool features a water park designed for kids with a water slide, a nice and warm sauna designed for adults, two pools with different lanes (one approximately 5ft, the other approximately 2ft). The outdoor pool contains one single 5ft pool with lanes and an outdoor water play designed for kids (similar to the ones seen around sand at playgrounds). The gym features exercise equipment like rower machine, treadmill, weights, exercise bikes etc. I have been there to this pool many times over 15 years when it use to be YMCA and the old building, been to the new NARC since the launch opening in November 2023. The only reason why I've taken off one star is because there is not enough car spaces and can be frustrating to find one as the parking spaces are most of the time full, but the actual aquatic centre itself is 5 stars. Would highly recommend going there for swimming and exercising.
