Caloundra <strong>Aquatic</strong> Centre, Central Park Road, Caloundra (council owned)<br />
The Caloundra <strong>Aquatic</strong> Centre is located centrally within a large multi-use sports and high school<br />
precinct. Currently the facility operates under a management agreement. The lease is currently<br />
being finalised with the contract expiring in June 2022.<br />
The facility features a 50 metre pool, 25 metre pool (with small grandstand), junior pool, toddler<br />
leisure pool, program pool, amenities block, kiosk, crèche, gymnasium and skate park.<br />
Assessment<br />
The 2006 census 10 kilometre population catchment is estimated to be 56,108 persons. This<br />
population catchment base is shared with the nearby 25 metre ocean pool at Kings Beach, a<br />
regional facility at Kawana and a proposed district facility at Caloundra South. Two pools within<br />
the complex are currently undergoing major redevelopment which will improve the facility’s<br />
functionality and operating capacity. The facility requires an endorsed site master plan prior to<br />
further development taking place.<br />
