Isolation Floatation pods are filled with 500kg of magnesium so you float like the dead sea, your body absorbs the magnesium and you leave feeling refreshed and relaxed like never before.

Float Therapy Releases Endorphins, pain management, healing, athletic performance and sports recovery, Due to the activation of the parasympathetic nervous system through floatation therapy, the body is flooded with endorphins and dopamine.

I happened to have visited the Azelia Ley Homestead on one of the days and times it was opened (it has limited opening days and hours), and was very glad I did. There’s so much history here, not just about the original occupant but also of the wider Manning Park and Cockburn area. They had magazines and newspapers from circa World War 2 and it was fascinating to read the articles from this era, as well as see the homestead and history of the area from the time it was built. Well worth a visit - time it right for when the museum is open.
3. Cockburn Ice Arena
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 42 reviews
Located South of Perth in Bibra Lake, Cockburn Ice Arena is Perth's largest ice sports venue, boasting the state's only full Olympic sized ice rink. The arena offers an ice skating rink, an ice hockey/sports rink, cafe, pro shop, bar and licensed restaurant. Ice skating session times alternate between school term and school holidays, with more sessions being added for the school holiday period - there are usually over 20 sessions to choose from during the school holidays. Ice skating at Cockburn Ice Arena is a great option for a family weekend activity, and the rink is an ideal place to take the kids on the school holidays for some good healthy fun. Ice skating lessons and ice hockey lessons are also offered, and are run in conjunction with the school term, 4 terms per year.

Last July it was my birthday and my family took me to the rink for ‘a bit of nostalgia’. Well. Being Canadian, I was tremendously surprised by the fact that the rink had put on a Canada Day event...ice hockey, of course...the first game I’d been to in 40+ years! Not only that, but the All Star teams were Montreal Canadiens vs the Toronto Maple Leafs! Montreal has always been my team, and for me to watch mortal enemies battle to the death was just HEAVEN. 10-2. Kicked Toronto’s backside! Oh, what a night! Me in my Montreal hockey sweater, drinking Canadian beer, enjoying the game(ok, it wasn’t up to NHL standard, but it was hockey...), me jumping up and down screaming my head off at the players and watching my family slowly freeze whilst sitting in the stands...me, of course, knowing full well what a rink temperature is like, rugged up and loving it. The venue is purpose-built and very good. Food and beverages are great, atmosphere is fantastic. Go again? YES!!!!

Cockburn ARC is the City of Cockburn's leading edge recreation and aquatic centre, unlike anything else in Perth. We have 9 water areas, 3 waterslides, a 6 court stadium, 3 group fitness studios and a huge health club space.

Perth’s newest water park Cockburn ARC is insane! Featuring three amazing water slides a huge area for children, basketball courts, and four pools. It’s fantastic value for money and a great family day out. Rather than drive, take the bus or train to Cockburn Central and avoid the traffic. Actually there's way more, but we didn't get time, so we have planned to return. The staff are friendly and professional, plus the cafe makes a mean latte.
