Parking at PARC
At Peninsula Aquatic Recreation Centre, we aim to make your visit as easy and stress-free as possible – including parking.
Free Member Parking
All PARC members receive a parking permit in their welcome pack, giving you 3 hours of free parking in the Main and PARC/TAFE car parks.
A few things to remember:
- Please ensure your permit is valid and clearly displayed on every visit
- If your permit expires, simply see our friendly Reception team to renew it
- Members must follow all parking signage in designated PARC and street parking areas
Members can also enjoy free parking at Pines Forest Aquatic Centre.
