A main pool with zero depth entry, lap area, floatables, a basketball goal, ¾ meter diving board, drop slide, water walk, frog slide, in-water playground, four additional interactive play features that are guaranteed to get you wet.
Take a leisurely float down our 550 foot Lazy River on a single tube, or float with a friend on the double tubes. But be careful - the Overhead Tumble-Buckets and the River Falls feature are ready to douse you with water when you least expect it!
For all the little wee-waders, we have a special place just for you. The completely zero-depth entry Adventure Pool boasts four interactive play features to keep the young ones wet and wild all day. The maximum depth is only 18” to ensure the safety of the li’l ones. Still want more? Cruise on over to the beach-like Sand Play Area, where you will find play structures, water, buckets and shovels to create wonderful castles and more.
For those who are craving the true thrill of water, speed down one of our three slides: fly down the Open Flume Body Slide, try the heart pounding Totally Enclosed Flume Slide, or start your Lazy River trip with a ride down our Tube Slide.
No matter what level of fun you are looking for, you will find it at the Watertown Family Aquatic Center. It is truly focused on a being a family experience that you will want to experience over and over.
