Toilets with Showers in Australia

Australia records 1,931 public toilets with a shower on site. New South Wales holds the most at 695 — 36% of the national figure — ahead of Queensland (377) and Western Australia (334). The smallest recorded total is Australian Capital Territory, with 4. They sit in 1,289 named towns across 1,314 recorded areas.

The heaviest concentrations are around Cronulla (13), Rottnest Island (12) and Belair (11). Those 3 account for 36 of the 1,931; a further 918 towns record exactly one. The single busiest is Cronulla, NSW.

Named listings include Wombarra Rock Pool on Reef Avenue, Eagle Point, Waratah Park Basketball Stadium and Sirens Rest Beach. Around Cronulla the listings run to Darook Park, North Cronulla Surf Life Saving Club and Wanda Surf Life Saving Club. Further afield the map records Dundubara Camping Area - Great Sandy National Park (QLD) and BP Southern Cross (WA).

The mix runs to 624 parks and reserves, 275 sporting grounds, 215 service stations and 179 beaches. Across the set the listings cover 17 of the 17 kinds of site the map names. A further 213 are filed under the map's catch-all "Other" category. Set against the 24,446 listings across Australia, that is a 8% share, rising to 8% among the 24-hour listings.

1,403 of the 1,931 are recorded as wheelchair accessible — among them Westfield Coomera and Tobruk Memorial Baths. 107 are Changing Places facilities, with an adult-sized change table and a hoist — among them Casuarina Aquatic & Leisure Centre and Brisbane Airport Domestic Terminal. 103 open with an MLAK key, the national Master Locksmiths Access Key — among them Town Beach and Pit Paddock. 60 need a key from the operator instead, which means finding whoever holds it before you arrive. 523 of the 1,931 have a baby-change table, and 510 of those sit at a site that is also wheelchair accessible.

903 of the 1,931 are published as open 24 hours — including Iluka Foreshore Park and Derby Trail Head. 373 open in daylight hours only, 162 list variable hours and 39 follow the host venue's hours. Where set times are published, the earliest opening is 2:30am at Sydney Airport - International Terminal and the latest closing is 11pm at Citiplace Rest Centre. 44 are shown as closed on Mondays. 574 publish no weekly hours at all, so treat those as unknown rather than open.

41 of the 1,931 charge for entry; the rest are free — the charging ones being Citiplace Rest Centre and Goulburn Aquatic and Leisure Centre. A shower recorded here is a public shower at the same site as the toilet. The dataset does not record whether it is hot, whether it takes coins, or whether it keeps the same hours as the toilet block, so the ones attached to caravan parks and pools are the least predictable. All of the counts above are read from the National Public Toilet Map rather than checked in person.
