Fantastic experience: Great place for gym and ice rink. Fair prices.
Positive experience: Update glad you fixed the broken missing and jagged tiles during the 3 weeks maintenance. You asked for input for starters you could fix the water fountain in the gym that has been essentially inoperable for like 8 months You Used to be pleased but I’ve had enough , I have cut myself open twice in one month in the pool on broken tile with exposed grout neither areas have been fixed the gym is unbelievably under equipped for the amount of people you’re taking membership dues from and now week to week can’t keep up with the new schedules for lessons pretty sure when I signed up for our family membership I was never told their would be multiple days a week with NO public access to the pool. Sure during the mid day is open when everyone is working or at school. So you just want more money for lessons fine just increase my membership . This isn’t a privately owned facility so refusing public especially when they’re paying members isn’t ok with me .
We regret to hear you did not have a positive experience when visiting our facility. We have shared your feedback with our team and have worked to resolve matters. With respect to the pool schedule, we try to balance programs with open drop-in swim times. There are a few select times on the schedule that are primarily for aquatic programs, including lessons. This helps ensure a quality swim experience while meeting community’s needs. Due to some conflicts in pool space, a decision was made to adjust access during peak lesson periods. We invite you to send your weightroom equipment suggestions to [email protected] for future considerations, or if you have any further information you would like to share.
Fantastic experience: Excellent facility for being a small town!
Fantastic experience: My son (2) had his first swimming lesson with Sarah today. She was so wonderful and patient and she had an amazing list of songs and games to keep the kids engaged! Highly recommend
Fantastic experience: $3.00 for a hot shower? I say yes. Great facility, and I've only just scratched the surface.
Fantastic experience: Great community entertainment place my girlsnlove the pool and arena!
Fantastic experience: This place is a gem. The staff are friendly and helpful. The facilities are more than I expected. There is a good community feel to the place too.
Negative experience: Your lifeguards at the pool like to micromanage how a person swims. It's a bit much and uncalled for.
Fantastic experience: Amazing Family rec center Great for all ages
Fantastic experience: Sooke you will be missed!! My favorite place to go indoors in the town. No chlorine, pool salt I believe. Nice clean facility.
Fantastic experience: Gym is clean and well ventilated with great equipment The sauna is hot!!!
Negative experience: Doing the sauna 4 to 7 times a week reduces your risk of dying from illness by %40! All I care about is the sauna so I am disregarding everything else this seemingly good facility has to offer. These people running SeaParc must be doing something wrong, this sauna has TWO heating units with rocks in it yet it is still tepid and lukewarm. I went in there and not a single person was sweating. I feel really sorry for the members of this community because they don’t have easy access to a fairly priced and functioning sauna. Please look into putting a temperature gauge in the sauna and reducing air escape from the door or something, because it is not working properly at all.
Hi Garett, As a public aquatic facility, we must operate within provincial regulations and as such, we utilize the ‘Rule of 200’ in the operation of the SEAPARC Dry Sauna. The ‘200’ value is a cumulative value adding the Air Temperature and Relative Humidity of the space in question to get an ‘end’ number. In SEAPARC’s case, the air temperature setpoint, in Fahrenheit, of the sauna (140 F) is added to the average relative humidity of the pool natatorium (60%) of which the sauna is considered a part of under provincial guidelines, to get the value. The humidity in the aquatic environment therefore impacts the temperature that we can operate at. The other key issue we have to keep in mind is the flooring in the sauna, which must meet provincial guidelines for coefficient of friction (COF) within an aquatic facility. Unlike many sauna ‘specific’ businesses or home saunas we are unable to use wood flooring in the sauna as that type of flooring does not meet provincial guidelines for flooring in an aquatic facility. Unfortunately tile flooring holds heat at a higher rate than the cedar wall covering and the cedar benches in the sauna so we must remain cognizant of the temperature of the tile flooring to ensure it does not get too hot. As you have suggested, we will look at installing a temperature gauge. Thank you, SEAPARC staff
