OLYMPIA CENTRE
For ardent swimmers and
families seeking an active
day out; Olympia, Dundee is
where it’s at. Swimming is an
excellent way to work out the
entire body without straining
joints or muscles, and it’s also
fun, especially when you factor
in the leisure pool with a rapid
river, wave pool and seated
bubble baths to excite the kids
– and a number of adults too.
Four flumes promise to take
intrepid swimmers on the ride
of their lives, before splashing
down into the aqua catches
(red, green and blue), except
for the Cannonball (yellow),
which drops you a whopping
3.8 metres into the dive pool.
The pool also boasts a number
of features that are unique to
Scotland including LED light
effects and 3D holograms
which all add to the sensory
experience. Olympia’s main
pool offers a six lane 25 metre
Training Pool, an Activity Pool
(which has a movable floor to
change depths) for aerobic
classes & swim lessons and a
Dive Pool boasting a 1, 3 & 5
metre diving boards.. Always
check website for Aquatic
feature’ opening times. Situated
a five minute walk from Dundee
bus station, Olympia is easy to
get to and hard to leave.
