Dubai Opens World’s Deepest Pool At 60 Meters

Already home to the world’s tallest skyscraper and the world’s largest mall, Dubai has just opened another record-breaking attraction – the deepest dive pool in the world.

With a staggering depth of 60 meters (196 feet), the pool, part of the new Deep Dive Dubai attraction – has stolen the record from Poland’s Deepspot, which has a depth of over 45 meters.

The Deep Dive Dubai pool is filled with 14 million liters of fresh water – the volume of six Olympic-sized swimming pools – and is at least four times bigger than any other diving pool in the world.

But the biggest star of Deep Dive Dubai is arguably the pool’s underwater city.

Divers can also explore the pool and the underwater city by themselves after a tour with one of the dive guides at the site.

“There are quite a few dive pools in the world that are deep, but this one is so much more interesting,” Deep Dive Dubai director Jarrod Jablonski told CNN.

And in case you forget just how deep the pool is, Deep Dive Dubai has posted a notice on its website for those planning to visit the city’s famed Burj Khalifa afterward.
