One of YMCA Auckland's most recent centres, Lagoon Leisure and Fitness has an indoor, heated 33.3m pool together with a toddlers pool super-heated teaching pool, as well as a relaxing spa pool. In summer the outdoor facility opens with a 50m outdoor pool, a kids pool, dive pool and adventure playground. There’s plenty of grass (and shaded picnic areas) for family BBQs – make sure you phone ahead to book your BBQ!
Located on the main route from Ellerslie to the Eastern Suburbs and positioned on the bank of the Panmure Basin, Lagoon Leisure and Fitness is the largest of the YMCA centres. It offers its members not only an extensive Y-Fitness Club but indoor and outdoor pools and hydroslide, as well as a stadium for sports leagues and an extensive variety of children's programmes.
Redevelopment has already taken place in the fitness area and a brand new cardio theatre containing interactive fitness equipement (treadmills, bikes and cross-trainers with individual SKY TV monitors built into the console. You pick your channel while you workout!) now overlooks the outdoor pools.
Working with the Auckland City Council, YMCA Auckland will be redeveloping the outdoor pool area to make the summer even more enjoyable.
