Lap swimmers get the competition pool to themselves on three early mornings a week. The wave pool and the slide are not part of that session.
What is there
ActiveSG lists five things:
- one competition pool
- one wave pool
- one wading pool
- one slide
- one spa pool
That mix is the reason to choose CCK over a plain neighbourhood pool. Older children get waves and a slide, small children get the wading pool, and the adult who drew the short straw gets a spa pool.
ActiveSG does not publish a height limit for the CCK slide on its facility page, so ask the lifeguards before you promise a ride to a small child. At Sengkang, for comparison, the listed limits are 1.2 m and 1.3 m.
Partial closures: the detail to check
A swimming complex can be open while one of its pools is shut. When we checked on 5 October 2026, the facility page showed a temporary closure of the toddler pool from 23 August to 10 October 2026, with the rest of the complex running normally.
A seven-week closure of one pool is easy to miss. The gate is open, the app sells you a pass, and you only find out when you arrive with a two-year-old. The closure announcements sit near the top of the facility page. Read them every time you bring a child who needs a specific pool.
Weather is the other cause. ActiveSG may close outdoor facilities in bad weather as a safety precaution.
What it costs
CCK charges the special features complex rate. These prices are from the ActiveSG individual rates page, checked on 5 October 2026.
| Swimmer | Weekday | Weekend and public holiday |
|---|---|---|
| Adult, citizen or PR | S$1.50 | S$2.00 |
| Child or senior citizen, citizen or PR | S$0.80 | S$1.00 |
| Adult, standard rate | S$2.00 | S$2.60 |
Two adults and two children pay S$4.60 on a weekday and S$6.00 on a Saturday.
Singapore citizens aged 65 and above enter ActiveSG gyms and swimming pools free. ActiveSG's help site says no pass is needed: scan your NRIC at the entrance.
Buy a feature pass in the ActiveSG app. A normal pass will not open the gate here. ActiveSG lists six feature complexes: Choa Chu Kang, Heartbeat @ Bedok, Jurong East, Jurong West, Pasir Ris and Sengkang.
For regulars, MyActiveSWIM costs S$10 a month for an adult and S$5 a month for a child or senior citizen, with unlimited entry to every ActiveSG swimming complex.
Getting there and getting in
ActiveSG describes the sport centre as sitting between two MRT stations. The sport centre also holds a stadium and other facilities, so allow time to find the pool entrance on a first visit.
Entry is by the ActiveSG app. Buy the pass before you leave home, and use the pool capacity check on the facility page. A cheap wave pool during the school holidays is not a quiet place.
Who this pool suits
It suits families in the west who want water play without a water park bill. It suits lap swimmers who can use the early session on Tuesday, Thursday or Saturday.
It suits adults who want calm lengths at 5pm on a Saturday less well. You pay the feature rate and share the water with the wave pool crowd. A normal complex is cheaper and calmer, and our guide to Jalan Besar Swimming Complex shows what a plain lap pool offers at S$1.00.
If swimming is your low-cost cardio, pair it with strength work. An ActiveSG gym entry is S$2.50, and our guide to pay-per-use gyms in Singapore covers the sums. For the bigger picture, read how to get fit in Singapore on almost no budget.
