1 / 3Riverway Lagoons
📍 Thuringowa Central, QLD
Two large outdoor swimming lagoons in Thuringowa Central with full lifeguard supervision, an infinity pool overlooking Ross River, BBQ facilities, coin lockers, gym equipment, and an on-site cafe. Free entry.
🏆 Family Action Verdict
Best for families wanting a full half-day or full-day outdoor swim with genuine lifeguard supervision and room to spread out. The lagoon size means even busy weekends rarely feel crowded. Younger children benefit from the varied depths across the two pools.

“The place is amazing, kids are enjoying themselves swimming around as well as adult people. Life guard is also keeping eyes on every kids in the pool so they feel safe to swim around. Everyone are enjoying themselves here. I'd love to visit again and have a swim too.”

“Great free place to come for a swim, whether that’s to do some laps or to cool off. Lockers are available to place your belongings in. There’s also a cafe attached. There is an upper and lower pool. The lower pool overlooks the river which is nice.”

“What an amazing place! Two massive pools one being an infinity pool. There is certainly no problem bumping into anyone when swimming so much room. Try the cafe while you’re there, great lattes and also recommend the peanut and chocolate muffin.”
💬 What parents mention
Overview
Riverway Lagoons offers two enormous swimming lagoons — the lower pool sits at infinity pool height above Ross River, delivering unobstructed water views. Lifeguards and security are present throughout. On-site facilities include BBQ and table setups, coin-operated lockers, gym equipment, and a cafe serving coffee and food. Weekday lunchtime visits frequently leave the pools near-empty.
