For great players, this would probably wreck your timing and won't improve your endurance. For bad skaters, then this will help, you won't need to skate very far from offence to defensive lol. Obviously, it's meant for pond hockey, and frankly, when I first played in this rink as a call up a few times earlier in the year, the novelty was there, but now, I won't make a special trip out here unless I'm visiting my hospitality clients lol. It's not just off Hwy #10 but you gotta zig zag past some office complexes, and the parking can be atrocious. Great viewing area for spectators ;) And as the name suggest, the ice is pretty darn good, after all, how much damage can 6 players really do to the ice, lol.

I have been going here for 20 years and have seen the many changes! From only have two rinks to now…read more3, to having a small pub to a family restaurant.. Excellent Ice sure has changed (for the better!). Took the kids to train with Trina (Learn to Skate instructor) and she is AMAZING! She's nice, fun, and totally is kid-friendly! Love her classes!! Can't wait for the kids to try Darin's hockey classes!

This review is specifically for the pool(s). The facilities are really good, although the changing…read moreroom/showers are fairly primitive. The salt water pools are both nice--a good sized lap pool and a warmer leisure for water walking and kid fun, as well as a river for floating and relaxing. There is also a giant water slide. The downside is the management of the pools, or lack thereof. Don't expect rules to be enforced, especially in summer, when the lifeguards are almost exclusively teenagers. Kids play in the lap lanes, which disappear with little regard to the schedule. I saw a child dive into the shallow end of the kids' pool and not one of the three lifeguards said anything or perhaps even noticed. Usually there's only one swim lane during aquafit, even if the class is sparsely attended. If you want equipment--water weights, for instance--you often have to hunt down someone to get them for you from a back room. Most gyms I've been to have that equipment readily available. During aquafit classes, the music is so loud that the people in the water often can't hear the instructor, and the instructors are already miked. The volume is headache-inducing at times. Additionally, the music itself is generally very bad. In the morning, it's the same hits of the 70s on a loop ("American Pie" every morning gets old quickly) and in the evenings it's even worse. Little effort seems to go into matching what people in the aquafit classes might enjoy--it's just typical aerobics music, with no imagination or common sense put into the song choice, given that the majority of the people in the classes are 65-plus. (Pre-1960 music actually had a beat--people jitterbugged to it!) I mention music because it's loud, there's no escaping it, and having contemporary country (for example) blaring in your ear isn't always what you want when you're trying to unwind after a long day.

This is a seasonal pop up ice skating rink in the heart of Port Angeles - typically open from mid…read moreNovember to early January. It also has fun Christmas decorations to enjoy, with lit up ornaments so huge you can walk around in them! They rent ice skates on site if you don't have any and they also have a "Snack Shack". The village is run by local volunteers which I thought was really cool - the ice rink was full of kids and families having such a great time - Their website even has an ice rink webcam haha! It's free to enter in general but there's a charge for the skating. Prices are very reasonable and include the skate rental - and a ticket lasts you all day with in and out privileges. There's also a discount if you have your own skates. The volunteers provide "safety monitors" on the ice and there are benches/bleachers on the sidelines for family/audience viewing. We didn't skate but had fun watching briefly and walking around all the decorations. Parking seems to be all street parking in the surrounding area with time limits so be sure to read the signs. There are lots of cute shops and restaurants in the surrounding area so it makes for a fun outing!

Today, I feel, was rock bottom and I will not return. The place is unsafe - overcrowded and zero staff on the floor. I picked up trash on the rink floor as well as someone's stopper that had come off. Unfortunately the day ended with me at the ER due to these unsafe conditions. I sacrificed myself to avoid a small child when another person hit me - ultimately smashing my face into the floor and causing about an inch long laceration on my chin. A fellow skaters stopped to help and abother lady went with me to the restroom to help control the bleeding. zero reaction from any staff - pardon the woman bleeding in the floor! I gathered my daughter and her 3 cousins that I had brought along with us, while clutching a blood soaked paper towel to my face. Still zero notice from any staff. The only time anyone working took notice of me was as I was walking out the door - I was approached by a young woman that wanted my personal inform to submit to their insurance. Thanks for nothing Lynden Skateway. I hope your policy doubles. Hopefully nobody slipped in my blood. What a disaster.

Skates are now $5 CAD and you can even rent spikes to walk around the rink for $2 CAD. If you have your own skates, you skate for free. What a need little venue. Smaller rink than a normal hockey rink but still just as fun! During the holidays it got a bit crowded. Everyone wanted to embrace the holiday spirit and there was a live band playing that night so traffic in and around the area was buzzing. I'll let the pictures and videos do the talking. The staff was courteous and down to earth and they even had lockers for your personal belongings. The plus side is there is a small booth that sells hot chocolate, coffee and other drinks to warm you up. Overall a fun time was had. I'd do it all over again!
