Peak Times
Peak time prices apply:
Small Pool Availability
During the school term, the small pool is closed to the public for junior swimming lessons 3.30pm-5.30pm each weekday.
Timed Sessions
During peak times, the Oasis runs a timed session system - each session being approximately an hour. |
Domebusters
Enclosed flumes with varying bends and drops.
The Sidewinder
A gentle, spiraling 'starter' flume ideal for younger children and parents. This flume can be ridden sitting, facing forward (with or without a child under 116cm in height), or head first on your front.
The Great White
A fast, head first only ride with two small vertical drops and several twists and turns. Our ultimate thrill ride.
The Storm
Our newest flume, smaller in circumference than the other flumes, allows you to plunge at high speed into the pool at the bottom and to see if you have the 'fastest ride of the day'. This flume must be ridden feet first, on your back with ankles together and arms folded across your chest.
Please Note: This flume has a striped lighting effect that can give the sensation of flashing lights. It may therefore not be suitable for anyone with photosensitive epilepsy.
