 Facilities

4 x 25m Swimming Pool
The pool measures at 0.9m at the shallow End, 1.2m at the middle section and 2.0m at the Deep End. The pool water is heated using waste heat from the neighbouring Bowmore Distillery and the pool hall air. It has been estimated that this gives the Mactaggart Leisure Centre a saving of 15% in fuel costs. Being the centrepiece of the Leisure Centre the pool plays host to a wide range of courses and activities including Aquacare, Parent & Toddler Sessions, Rookies, Holiday Programmes and so much more!
