Removed from Unnamed collection

Imagine having the thrill of the beach right in the heart of Mackay City. Welcome to Bluewater Lagoon, where you can enjoy a refreshing swim without leaving the cityscape. This aquatic escape is nestled within the Mackay Central Business District, offering three tiers of lagoon pools that make swimming safe and fun for everyone. It's conveniently close to barbecue spots, public workout equipment, and a playful playground along Bluewater Quay, making it a hub of activity and relaxation.

The lagoon is thoughtfully designed with three different age-friendly pools, each varying in depth. Kids will love the interactive water playground, complete with a water drop-bucket and a slide for endless excitement. A stunning feature waterfall elegantly links the two main pools, creating a scenic backdrop for your day out. For the littlest swimmers, a shallow wading pool offers a safe place to splash around.

When you're ready for a break from the water, explore the nearby walking trails. They offer a perfect opportunity to soak in the natural beauty of the area. And if you're feeling peckish, you'll find plenty of nearby cafes and eateries ready to serve up delicious bites to fuel your adventure.
