Welcome to UBC Recreation Aquatics

A large selection of UBC Rec’s programs are designed for students and with their popularity, we make a concerted effort to ensure that there is an opportunity for everyone to access registration to these activities. Follow these steps and make note of these key dates to snag your spot.

From August 13 to August 20, the UBC Aquatic Centre will see adjusted hours due to hosting the 2026 Junior Pan Pacific Championships. Read here for more information around closures and lesson impacts.

On select Sundays, the wibit will be out! Read more here!

From Sunday, July 19 to Saturday, July 25, we will be engaging in Water Safety Week, which is in line with the National Drowning Prevention Week as designated by the Lifesaving Society. Read more to see what programming will look like during this time period.

We are excited to announce an exciting addition to the UBC Triathlon Duathlon! Adult Aquathlon will join our race offerings beginning in 2027.
