Deep Dubai is 60.02 meters deep, holding 14 million litres of water. This record-breaking pool is located in Nad Al Sheba, which is a 25-minute distance from Dubai International Airport. You will be amazed to know that it also houses a sunken city within.
The pool has obviously made it to The Guinness Book of World Records. The Instagram handle of the world records shared its video praising its record breaking structure. While it was meant for private use earlier, it has now been opened to the public.
The pool is covered with 56 cameras to capture every angle possible. For a better experience, they have also added sound and mood lighting systems. The shape of the pool is a tribute to the UAE’s heritage as it is shaped like an oyster.
Ever since it was shared online, many have been expressing their desire to visit the pool. Here are some reactions:

Great, that you make so big efforts to promote scuba diving and freediving. There are similar ones in Poland and Belgium (if I am not mistaken), but they r shallower.
