“Gold on the Ground. The Oasis Recreation Centre lives up to its name and more. It is more than an Oasis. It is the real gold of Kalgoorlie. It is a recreation, gym, pool, and sports facility like nothing else I have seen in Western Australia. If you're passing through, staying, holidaying or working in the mines, make sure to visit this amazing place. Fitness lovers, sports enthusiasts, water lovers...it is a must.”
