        People who come from somewhere inland don’t have proper knowledge and respect for riptides. It’s quite possible this pool has prevented more than a few family vacations from turning tragic.

      It would make sense in north Australia where there are multiple types of jellyfish which can go through nets and are lethal.

      Also the sharks and crocodiles but mostly for jellyfish like the Irukandji.

    You know, I appreciate your intellectual honesty. You could have just claimed it was the largest and gotten on with your day, but you took the high road.

    I’ve been up to there. It’s not that cool, not very deep. Goes on and on tho.

    Looks so cool, but imagine if they need to drain the pool for any reason! Thousands of guests will be upset.

    Could have been four separate pools and way more practical.

      I believe it’s all seawater, they filter it and constantly pump water through. Would be a big job to drain for sure
