According to the Guiness book of records the worlds largest and deepest swimming pool is located at the
San Alfonso del Mar resort in Chile. It holds an amzing 66 million gallons of water and is more than 1000 yards
long! The water is so beautifully clear that you can see the bottom of the pool even at the deepest part which
is 115 feet deep. It cost close to one billion dollars to build and the yearly cost of maintaining the pool it
estimated to be approximately 2 million dollars.
This is a salt water lagoon style pool that uses a computer controlled suction and filtration system to ensure
that fresh, clean sea water is constantly circulating. Construction of the pool took around five years, it was
completed in 2006 and it is very comfortable to swim in as the sun warms it to a perfect 26C … so it is 9C
warmer than the nearby sea. It has been attracting record numbers of tourists to the area since it first opened
and likely will continue to do so.
