Warmer days are back!

Spring is here, temperatures are rising, and Bluewater Lagoon is the perfect place to spend your day. 🌴🏊

Cool off in the pools, relax with family and friends, then stop by the kiosk for a refreshing Peter's Ice Cream. From classic favourites to icy treats, we've got the perfect way to top off your visit. 🍦

See you at the Lagoon this spring!

Our lifeguards are trained to supervise the pool and respond in emergencies, but parents and carers play the most important role in keeping children safe around water.

When visiting our venue, stay close, stay engaged, and keep your focus on children in and around the water, at all times. By working together, we can help create a safer and more enjoyable aquatic experience for everyone.

Your supervision makes all the difference. Learn more via the Aquatic Supervision page on our website.

It's Loneliness Awareness Week.

This August, we're joining the call to make room for connection and raise awareness of the impact loneliness and social isolation can have on people and communities.

Connection doesn't have to be a big gesture. It could be sharing a smile, saying hello, inviting someone to join you, or taking a moment to check in. These small but deliberate actions can help people feel welcome, included and connected.

We're proud to be a place where people can connect, stay active and feel part of the community.

Today is World Drowning Prevention Day.

Today we join communities around the world in recognising the importance of drowning prevention and water safety awareness. The day serves as a reminder that drowning prevention is everyone's responsibility and that together we can help reduce preventable water-related
incidents.

Whether it's actively supervising children, learning CPR, enrolling in swimming lessons or simply sharing water safety messages, every action contributes to safer communities.

Let's continue working together to create safer experiences in and around the water.

💙 Anyone can drown, but no one should.

Small actions can make a big difference around water.

Ahead of World Drowning Prevention Day, we're encouraging everyone to refresh their water safety knowledge and help create safer aquatic environments for all.

Things you can do:
✅ Supervise children at all times around water
✅ Learn CPR and emergency response skills
✅ Check pool gates and barriers are secure
✅ Keep learning and practising safe behaviours around water
✅ Encourage friends and family to do the same

Every small step we take can help save lives.
