The pool measures 1,013 meters and it covers an 8-hectare land. The pool is 11.5 feet deep, and it holds up to 66 million gallons (250 million liters) of water.

This pool was listed as the world largest swimming pool by the Guinness book of world records in the year 2006.

It s a significant tourist attraction to both Chileans and the rest of the world. The pool took approximately five years to build and a whopping $`1.5 billion to $2 billion of construction.

Why build a massive swimming pool beside an ocean?

Well, the waters of the coast of Chile are very cold and very dangerous that people have been banned against swimming in them. The founder of San Alfonso del Mar resort, Fernando Fischmann, decided to build the resort in 1997 as a way of providing people with a safer environment where they can enjoy water sports and other water activities.

In his mind, the founder wanted a large lagoon, but after traveling the world, he could not find such a technology, he finally came up with this giant pool. The water in the pool is the water from the ocean that is collected, filtered, and the temperature maintained to 9 degrees warmer than the ocean’s water.
