Big Splash, Water park in Macquarie, Australian Capital Territory, Australia.
The recreational complex contains eleven water slides, including specialized areas like Splash Island and a 50-meter swimming pool for different skill levels.
The facility started operations in 1969 as Macquarie Swimming Pool, later transforming from a public pool into a private water park in the 1990s.
The water park serves as a central summer gathering location for families in Canberra, offering swimming lessons and recreational activities throughout the season.
Big Splash operates seasonally from November to March, with current facilities including nine water slides, children's pools, and food service establishments.
The park integrated two former Wet'n'Wild Gold Coast attractions in 2013, expanding its offering of water-based entertainment options for visitors.
