Swim In The World’s Largest Swimming Pool

Posted by Nick on June 5, 2010

Chile is home to the largest swimming pool in the world. You can find it at San Alfonso del Mar resort at Algarrobo. An aerial view of the resort is in the image below.

The pool is an amazing 1,013 metres in length and covers an area of around 20 acres. The saltwater pool is filled with filtered water from the nearby ocean, which is too rough and too cold for swimmers. You can swim, scuba dive, boat and enjoy other water activities in this pool, which sees around 7,000 visitors each day. The deep end of the pool measures 115 feet.

If you’re planning a vacation to the southern coast of Chile, you can try swimming laps in the pool at San Alfonso del Mar resort.
