Want To Do Some Laps With Me?

World's Largest Swimming Pool (Chile, California)


If you like doing laps in the swimming pool, you might want to stock up on the energy drinks before diving in to this one.

It is more than 1,000 yards long, covers 20 acres, had a 115ft deep end and holds 66 million gallons of water.

Yesterday the Guinness Book of Records named the vast pool beside the sea in Chile as the biggest in the world.

But if you fancy splashing out on one of your own - and you have the space to accommodate it - then beware: This one took five years to build, cost nearly £1billion and the annual maintenance bill will be £2million.

The man-made saltwater lagoon has been attracting huge crowds to the San Alfonso del Mar resort at Algarrobo, on Chile 's southern coast, since it opened last month.

Its turquoise waters are so crystal clear that you can see the bottom even in the deep end....

[Mimiheart]

That's not a pool, it's a lake!

[DaGooseMon]

I swim laps at least 3 days a week, but I think laps in that pool would give me a heart attack for sure. I pitty the lifeguard watching over me in that pool... :lol:

[Lady Liberty]

I'll join you in some laps and then a little sun by the water's edge!

There is no way that you could police that properly without powered craft. I'd hate to be in the middle and get a cramp.

A co-worker of mine had a saltwater home pool put in his backyard. It is gorgeous.

[VA-165 Boomer]

But I prefer to dive.

I bet theres never any "hot spots" in that pool... :)
