In September 2026, Linda McGill won a public vote and received Council approval to have North Bellarine Aquatic Centre named after her.
As project names can’t be registered with Geographic Names Victoria (GNV), the North Bellarine Aquatic Centre name needed to change.
The Linda McGill Aquatic Centre name will now be submitted to GNV for gazetting.
The 50m outdoor pool reopens on Monday 19 October.
After a break to allow construction on the new indoor aquatic and recreation facility to progress, the outdoor pool is ready to welcome swimmers back.
The outdoor pool will be open:
Monday to Friday: 6:00am-10:00am
Saturday: 8:00am-12:00pm
These hours will gradually extend as we move into summer.
