Waikanae Pool

Waikanae is 33.5-metre outdoor heated pool, which also has a smaller toddlers' pool and a hydroslide. Enough fun to keep the kids happy for hours.

We're all learning to live in a world where COVID-19 is the norm. Remember, if you're unwell, take a test and please don’t visit our facilities. Exercise good hygiene, and while there's no longer a requirement to wear masks when you visit our facilities, if you feel more comfortable wearing a mask we encourage you to do so.

  • Children under 4 are required to wear a swim nappy in the pool
  • Children under 5 must be within arms reach of their adult supervisor* 
  • Children under 8 must be actively supervised by an adult supervisor*
  • Children aged 8-12, inclusive, that visit any of the Kapiti Coast District Council aquatics facilities unsupervised must give reception emergency contact details (first and last name and contact phone number) of a parent or guardian. 

    These contact details will be held in confidence at Reception and securely disposed of at the end of each day.
