This is from wikipedia

In the 21st century, there seems to be many contenders for "the largest swimming pool on earth", reputedly at Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh; at Club Med Camarina, Sicily; Sunlite Pool, Coney Island Cincinnati; and Garden City, Kansas with their 220 foot by 330 foot pool (67m x 100m) that holds 26,000,000 gallons (100 million litres) of water, all being in contention. A recent construction in Tokyo, Japan may top them all. The largest indoor wave pool in North America is located at the West Edmonton Mall [1]and the largest indoor pool is at the Neutral Buoyancy Lab in the Sonny Carter Training Center at NASA JSC in Houston[2]. The longest swimming pool is the Orthlieb Pool in Casablanca, Morocco. The pool is 480 meters or 1,574 feet long and 75 meters or 246 feet wide. The Orthlieb Pool is filled with sea water and covers 8.9 acres (3.60 Ha). [Source: Internet] The pool Nemo 33 is a recreational diving center near Brussels, Belgium that is home to the world's deepest swimming pool. The pool has two large flat-bottomed areas at depth levels of 5m (16 ft) and 10m (32 ft), and a large circular pit descending to a depth of 33m (108 ft).[3]

The Fleishhacker Pool was the largest swimming pool in the United States. Opened on 23 April 1925, it measured 300 m by 45 m (1,000 ft by 150 ft) and was so large that the lifeguards required kayaks for patrol. It was closed in 1971 due to low patronage.[4]
