Swimming pools which will amaze you….

France has more than 3.2 million pools according to the latest figures – and the number is increasing each year[1]. We all love to enjoy a dip in the pool, especially on a hot and sunny day.

Across the world of course, pools are also extremely popular; so we thought we would share some inspirational and interesting facts about amazing pools across the globe.

  • The world’s deepest pool

Dubai has the deepest swimming pool on the planet, opening in 2021. The Deep Dive Dubai pool is complete with a “sunken city” for divers to explore. Filling the pool is no small task… it contains 14.6 million litres of fresh water – equivalent to six Olympic-size swimming pools. You can also swim down to the depths accompanied by lights and ambient music, divers can play table football and other games at the bottom….[2]

  • Hotel high rise swimming in Asia

If you are not scared of heights, then a swim in the glass-bottomed portion of the pool at the Hotel Indigo Hong Kong could be just for you. The pool hangs off the side of the high-rise building overlooking the district of Wan Chai, an area on the northern shore of Hong Kong.

  • The world’s largest man-made lagoon

This award goes to the Citystars Sharm El Sheikh Hotel in Egypt[3]. The massive pool, which opened in 2015, covers 97,000 square meters.

  • One of the world’s oldest functioning pools

Bravo, France…! The Piscine Nakache was built over 90 years ago in 1930, based near Toulouse[4].  The pool, which is open  to the public, is on an island in the middle of the river Garonne. There are saunas too.
