Largest Swimming Pool in the World

by Francis Vanderbruggen on 23 May 2008

Have a look at this lagest swimming pool in the world in San Alfonso del Mar in Chile.

Really impressive!

It’s eight hectares in size and contains an incredible 250,000 cubic meters of water. Acknowledged by Guinness World Records as being the world’s largest swimming pool, the lagoon trounces all other record holders in the category. The San Alfonso pool is 1 km in length.

The revolutionary clear water artificial lagoons, transparent to a depth of 35 meters and unprecedented in design and construction methods, are the brainchild of Crystal Lagoons founder, biochemist and Chilean businessman Fernando Fischmann. Equivalent in size to an incredible 6,000 standard domestic pools, details of its technology are to be unveiled for the first time at Cityscape Dubai later this month.

Wow! That’s a “monster” swimming pool, I wonder what kind of swimming pool covers they use for that.
