New mobility lift installed at the Jabiru Swimming Pool

20 October 2022

West Arnhem Regional Council is thrilled to announce the Jabiru Swimming Pool now features a new mobility lift accessible to all pool visitors!

Funded by Tourism NT, the valuable lift has opened up further accessibility to the 50-metre pool facility.

With thousands of tourists passing through Jabiru annually while they explore the incredible Kakadu National Park and into Arnhem Land, the Jabiru Pool is a popular spot to stop along their journey.

 

And the Pool has lots of other great features for locals and visitors including:

  • Shaded 50-metre pool with swimming lanes and gym
  • Kids’ wading pool and splash pad
  • Children’s playground including a bouncy pillow and monorail
  • Barbecue and shaded picnic facilities

Pool Team Leader Barbara Murray, who has been trained to operate the mobility lift, said, “Jabiru is fortunate to have this asset at the pool. It’s a great opportunity for anyone with difficulty entering and enjoying the water.

“Thank you to all who have made this possible.”

 

Please come down to enjoy this wonderful facility!
