The deepest diving pool in the world - record confirmed by the Guinness Academy of Records - opened a few days ago in Dubai


60 meters deep, 14.6 million liters of water and the decor of a "submerged city" ... In Dubai, the deepest diving pool in the world, which has just opened, is also a tourist attraction.

Divers can thus explore the depths of a reconstituted lost city, littered with everyday objects and covered with abundant vegetation.

A one hour session costs between 500 and 1500 dirhams (around 115 to 345 euros).

“It's not just a 60 meter deep pool, 15 meters deeper than any other (pool).

It's not really the most interesting aspect, ”says Jarrod Jablonski, director of Deep Dive Dubai.

"This is the theme of the sunken city, which is fascinating to explore for snorkelers and scuba divers."

"We wanted to recall the heritage of freediving in the Emirates" and "pearl fishing", hence the oyster shape of the external structure, also explains the director.

In 2019, Dubai had welcomed more than 16 million tourists.

With the launch in October of the Universal Exhibition, the emirate hopes to fill up with visitors, after a year and a half marked by the health crisis
