    BY THE LAKES & ON THE LAKES

South Lake Leisure Centre

Due to the 'Fireworks at the Lakes' event on Thurs 31 Oct, South Lake Leisure Centre will close early. The centre closes at 4pm, with last activities at 2.45pm and the car park closing at 3.00pm.

WILL THE FITNESS JOURNEY BE EASY? NOPE

WILL IT BE WORTH IT? ABSOLUTELY!

 

Northern Ireland’s newest leisure centre has more sports activities and fitness programmes for people of all ages and abilities than anywhere else in the region – and it belongs to you!

Located at the south side of Craigavon’s balancing lake and enjoying fantastic views of Craigavon City Park, the state-of-the-art facility is a landmark for the area and situated in a pre-existing network of walking and cycling paths covering around three miles.

From South Lake Watersports, Craigavon on the lake to the indoor competition-ready 50m pool, and from the largest gym on the island of Ireland to fully accessible Disability Sport NI facilities, our getactiveabc team are incredibly excited to welcome you!

Paul Coleman, General Manager
