Doveton Pool in the Park

Review:


All the pools and slides are outside with some trees, shade sails, big umbrellas and shelters for shade. There are extensive grassy areas including a basketball court.

The entry prices are quite low for a family but the price of the Giant Waterslide is extra and can mount up. There are clean but old fashioned men's and women's change-rooms and one family room (key available at the entrance).

There is a kiosk serving hot food such as chips and pies, ice-creams and lollies. There is not a cappuccino or latte in sight, in fact, plain tea or coffee are not even available. There are nine little tables inside next to the kiosk. There are shaded tables and a free BBQ inside.

The 50m pool was nice and warm and varies in depth from 1.1m at one end, 1.4m in the middle and 3.5m at the other end. The intermediate slide is a straight slide down a small incline into a shallow 0.9m deep, chilly pool. The ride is much faster than you would expect. This slide is only for children younger than 10 years old and this is strictly enforced and therefore it is not possible for a parent and their child to go down the slide together.

The Giant Waterslide was not working when we were there but it does look quite exciting. You start at the top of a tall tower and the slide twists around before entering a steep section before levelling out and ending in a small 1.2m pool. The slide is an open half-pipe shape.

There is quite a bit for toddlers with a toddlers pool with partial covering with shade sails, beach entrance and 0.6m deep at the other end plus an extensive splash area full of different sprays coming out of the ground or equipment. The water flow periodically stops and starts again.
