Tidy Tides

 Tidy Tides goes on break on Thursday, 11 December, but will return in early 2026

Tiny Tides is a free aquatics program which provides instructor-led water play sessions for children under 4 in a welcoming environment for families.

Day Thursdays
Time 9:00am-12:00pm
Location South Hedland Aquatic Centre

Registration is not required, however sessions are capped at 20 families.

Tiny Tides empowers families with practical water safety knowledge and experience, reducing the risk of drowning and other water-related accidents.

By providing free, regular access to structured waterplay in a supportive setting, children develop essential water familiarity and confidence that reduces the barrier to formal swimming education.

Parents also gain a better understanding of the risks for young children around water and how to improve overall safety. This experience is particularly beneficial for families from non-swimming backgrounds who may not be comfortable around water.

Ultimately, the aim is to promote a foundation for lifelong water safety behaviours that will help keep everybody safe–at the pools, at home, and at the beach.

Watch Around Water and our Standard Conditions of Entry [PDF 250 KB] apply at all times.

Ordinary Entry Fees apply to parents/guardians.
