Lake Beaches
Perfect for a morning swim, before 9am or before sunset.
It does get quite busy during the day. There is a paddling pool and a small enclosed pool for younger children learning to swim.
The lake here is less suited for less advanced swimmers as it becomes very deep, very quickly.
The diving board is fun, either diving or watching dads showing their skills :)
