Water play until evening in the 50 m pool and the wading pool's slides and waterfall

About this spot

An outdoor leisure pool in Gotsu Central Park (江津中央公園) in Gotsu City (江津市), open in 2026 from Saturday 18 July to Monday 31 August. The proper eight-lane 50 m pool lets keen young swimmers and adults alike get a real swim, while the adjoining wading pool has three slides in a row and an artificial waterfall, so small children can play happily amid the spray. Shade shelters are provided, so you can pause for breaks and stay comfortable even under the fierce midsummer sun. Admission is affordable at 110 yen for elementary and junior high students, 220 yen for high school students, 440 yen general and 550 yen for young children accompanied by an adult, making it easy for the whole family to use. Hours are 10:00 to 18:00 (last admission 17:30), so arriving at midday leaves plenty of water play until evening.

Season & hours

Tips

Last admission is 17:30 and closing is 18:00, so entering by the first half of the 17:00 hour at the latest is reassuring. There are shade shelters, but they are limited in number, so claiming a spot as soon as you enter makes the day more comfortable. Picking up drinks and snacks in advance at the roadside station keeps things smooth.

Best time to visit

Arriving at 12:00 secures a spot before the peak crowd and lets you play well into the evening, close to the 18:00 closing time
