I love to swim, but hate getting into the water when it’s cold outside. However, kids love to swim anytime so if you’re stumped on what to do on a cold or rainy day, try swimming. The South Cobb Aquatic Center is more fun than your average pool and is only moments off of I-20 just a few miles from Six Flags Over Georgia. There is a zero entry portion for the little ones, a free swim area and diving board for the real swimmers. In addition, a lazy river, three story slide and play structure including silly shower, dump tank, small slide and waterfall. At $2 per child and $3 per adult, it’s a bargin too. You don’t have to be a Cobb County resident to get these prices either.
The facility is nicely kept, locker rooms are clean and include showers, bathrooms and lockers. There is also a family bathroom. The facility also offers a birthday party room for FREE! At least free once you pay the swim fee, there is no extra charge, but you do need to book the room.
