What is Deep Dive Dubai?
Deep Dive Dubai is an indoor diving facility inside an oyster shaped building, a nod to the UAE’s pearl diving heritage. It holds the Guinness World Records title for the deepest swimming pool for diving and opened to the public in 2021.
Under the water you’ll find an abandoned city to explore, with a different scene at each depth:
- 3 metres: a motorbike, an ATM and an underwater chess set
- 6 metres: a shallow wet bell
- 18 metres: a basketball hoop, a foosball table and a treasure chest
- 30 metres: an apartment with a kitchen and a bedroom
- 40 metres: a deep garage with cars and arcade games
- 60 metres: the bottom of the pool
First time divers stay in the shallower part of the city, up to 12 metres, while the deeper levels are for certified divers. The facility also has a hyperbaric chamber with a hyperbaric doctor on call, a restaurant and a dive shop. Visit Dubai’s guide to Deep Dive Dubai shares more of the story behind it.
