Cool off and unwind at the John Houston Memorial Swimming Pool, Hay’s beautifully upgraded aquatic hub. The complex features an Olympic‑size pool, a fun springboard, a dedicated learners’ pool, and a colourful splash park ideal for younger visitors. With shaded lawns, modern change rooms, improved amenities, a handy kiosk for snacks and lunches, and free entry all summer, it’s a perfect stop for families, travellers, and locals looking to relax.
Not in the mood for a swim? Enjoy a game on the brand‑new half basketball court, a great way to stay active during your visit.
Open from October to March, the pool is a favourite spot to swim laps, splash with the kids, or simply escape the outback heat.
