Cool down this Summer by trying these refreshing Frozen Berry Yoghurt Swirls! Quick and easy to make with only 4 ingredients - they are sure to be a hit with the whole family!

Summer is here, and it's a great time to remind each other to be safe when in the sun or by the water! 

Drinking enough water every day is crucial for many reasons: Organ function, prevention of infection, cellular nutrition, joint health and regulation of body temperature. Learn more below.

Using the resistance of water automatically increases the intensity of your workout, helping to increase your strength, flexibility and your overall health.

Our extensive group fitness timetable includes both wet, dry and intense options. The Swim School at Gympie ARC is a year round program designed to accelerate your child's progress through consolidated lessons. You can start at any time without school terms interrupting your child's progress. Enjoy the water splash park play area with the kids, and why not relax later with lunch at the café. We look forward to providing you the best health and leisure experience we can!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic asset to the whole shire and even bordering shire areas, people happy to drive 1.5 hours to visit ARC. Excellent facilities, very clean and beautifully maintained. Very affordable entry fee for families with young kids. Wonderful water play area for small kids, with a huge bucket that pours water every 2 minutes. Really comfortable seating areas and a great little cafe, nice coffee. Change rooms were very pleasant and showers nice and warm. Very pleasant staff. Super responsive life guards, who are actively supervising and happy to redirect misbehaviour in teens, for everyone's safety. Excellent facility.

Fantastic experience: What an asset to Gympie. Well done!! There are so many amazing activities within the Aquatic and Recreation Centre.

Water slides for the bigger kids(be prepared to pay a little extra to use the big slides) There's a gym, BBQ area, food available at kiosk + more. Lot's of parking available

Fantastic experience: Great facilities. Beautiful 50m outside pool. Heated 25m under cover pool. Plenty of seating. Cafe with breakfast meals and coffee. Very clean. Outside bike rack. Reasonably priced. Friendly staff.

Steven Spencer 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Amazing..... two pools, the largest an outdoor one... the smaller but still a large pool, indoor. Two side by side waterslides, one open the other a tube and then an area of fountains and slides and tipping buckets etc.... all beautifully landscaped with a separate gym.... very extensive and very well built covered areas joined together by an amazing covered walkway system.... has a 60's design feel about it. There is a canteen that sells coffee, lollies, chips etc but the chips and coffee weren't very nice and even though all the staff were lovely people they need some organisation behind the counter and it was apparent to an unqualified eye that the lifeguards couldn't be relied on to be at all the facilities watching customers, especially children at all times.... so go with your children.... don't rely on lifeguard supervision.

Fantastic experience: Visited the centre whilst holidaying from Sydney. Was very impressed from the start with its clean and well thought out design. Theres fun to be had for all ages but out teens enjoyed the slide the most and the best part...no lines! Many shady vantage points for parents to sit in the shade and supervise, and the coffee was superb. Well staffed with lifeguards as well so parents can relax. Excellent family day out!
