Noosa <strong>Aquatic</strong> Centre, Girraween Court, <strong>Sunshine</strong> Beach (council owned)<br />

The Noosa <strong>Aquatic</strong> Centre is located adjacent to the <strong>Sunshine</strong> Beach State High School and in<br />

close proximity to other sports precincts and schools within this locality. This centre is the only<br />

council owned aquatic centre being managed directly by council. Sub leases are in place for<br />

associated services including sports medicine, squad coaching and cafe.<br />

This facility features a 50 metre pool, 25 metre pool, toddler/leisure and program pool as well as<br />

amenities, lifeguard station, first aid room, gymnasium, crèche and supplementary space currently<br />

being used for sports medicine.<br />

Assessment<br />

The 2006 census 10 kilometre population catchment is estimated to be 33,479 persons. Since the<br />

development of the 25 metre pool (loss of shaded spectator mounds), there is a lack of permanent<br />

shaded areas around the facility. There is also a need to improve the provision of car parking and<br />

active transport options.<br />
