Poland is now home to the world’s deepest pool that features hotel rooms, underwater tunnels and caves. This record-breaking pool is also the perfect training spot for professional as well as beginner-level scuba divers. The deepest point of the pool is known as the Deepspot, and is 148 feet deep and can hold 27 times the amount of water of an average pool! It also functions as a perfect training center for divers as it offers educational courses. Read less
The divers here have a lot to explore, including overhangs, a shipwreck, Mayan ruins and underwater caves. There’s also a lot for non-divers, and they can watch the underwater world from an underwater tunnel, as the Deepspot features hotel rooms offering amazing views of the pool’s interior.
Polish diving instructor Przemyslaw Kacprzak said, "There are no magnificent fish or coral reefs here, so it's no substitute for the sea, but it is definitely a good place to learn and to train in order to dive safely in open water. And then it's a lot of fun, it's kindergarten for divers!"
About the world’s deepest pool
The Deepspot is basically intended as a practice site for divers of all levels, and has cost an estimated $10.6 million! It took more than two years to complete this project.
