โœ“ 50m lap poolโœ“ Warm waterโœ“ Excellent valueโœ“ Strict lane rulesโœ“ Helpful staffโœ“ Bus access

๐Ÿ† Family Action Verdict

Best for families with older children and teens who want structured lap swimming in a well-maintained outdoor environment. The pool enforces lane discipline, which makes it unsuitable for recreational splash play and excellent for serious young swimmers. The extremely low entry price makes it viable for regular family visits.

โ€œIt was my first time at the Valley pool and I really enjoyed my time there. At first it mightlook overcrowded but every swimmer follows rigorously the rules and no one screams or splashes. The water temperature is nice around 26ยฐC and relatively clean. It has all facilities, a well equipped changing room and a nice bar. Entrance fee is 2AUD which is great and can be easily reached by bus as the stop is right in front. The receptionist was kind and explained me everything I shouldโ€™ve known. Will definitely go back when in Brisbaneโ€

โ€œI just want to express my most sincere gratitude to the Valley Pool's staff members, specially to Liam and Nadie who helped me to get settle the most wonderful birthday I've ever had. Liam helped me to coordinate everything for the big day, while Nadia looked after us during the event. Everything was clean, tidy, the decorative lights, good drinks, fair prices and very supportive. Thank you very much Valley pool, you have made my day a beautiful dream.โ€
