Pools require annual maintenance to extend the life of the facilities and to minimize unexpected closures. We schedule planned, temporary closures of the pools and wet areas to complete this work each year. We do our best to provide all the details of the annual closures in advance so that you can plan accordingly. This year the start date of the Pender Harbour closure is not yet finalized. Once it is, we will update the public. Thank you for your patience.

The annual maintenance closures at SCRD pools are scheduled so that only one pool is closed while the other two pools are open and available.

SCRD staff will be seeking to better understand how patrons use the three pools on the Sunshine Coast. This information will help inform future planning. During this time, patrons visiting Pender Harbour Aquatic & Fitness Centre will be asked if they are using the pool during their visit. This may take a few extra seconds when you check in for each visit. We thank you in advance for your patience and cooperation.

The SCRD will not be collecting any additional personal information other than what is normally already collected for enrollment in registered programs and when patrons purchase passes.
