Beatty Park Leisure Centre

I swam in the outdoor 50m pool at 3 PM on a Sunday in May. It was very clean, there were designated speeds for the lanes, and everything was calm and sedate, though the car park was very full. The changing rooms are large. There is a grandstand surrounding three of the four sides of the pool, which shows its age a bit, but otherwise all is good.

This is an amazing aquatic complex with multiple indoor and outdoor pools (including a fantastic 50m outdoor pool). The water temperature is great, the lap pool is spotlessly clean, and everyone is friendly and respectful. There are lanes for slow and fast swimmers, and you usually only share with one or two other people if you come in the mornings before noon. The locker room is also clean and, though they have lockers for rent, most people leave their things outside by the pool.

They have monthly and daily swim passes and they also sell 10 or 20-visit passes. And there’s a gym on site (for an additional fee).

Highly recommend! Prob the best outdoor lap pool I’ve visited in Australia.

This is Perth's best lap pool, but you need to pick your time due to squads. The best time is from 7 to 9 AM. There's also a 27m diving pool that can be used for laps, but not many people do.

The 50 meter is great; frequented by serious locals, particularly at lunchtime. Not crowded. A youth swim team practice takes a few lanes mid-afternoon. Still no worries crowd-wise. The pool area has a wide deck, a stepped staging and lounging area, andgood sun - welcome in the cool Oct. air. Grandstands on two sides for swim meets made a good windbreak. The locker arrangement is user-friendly; the locker room is clean. This is a good place to recharge during a business trip.
