The Venetian pool may be the most unique swimming pool built in the world. It was built in 1923 from coral rock quarry. It is fed daily from fresh spring water and has an 820,000-gallon capacity. The pool has two waterfalls and several coral caves. This has been one of my favorites to visit throughout my life. The landscape and building surrounding the pool are magnificent in themselves. The area is like being in Venice with several loggias, porticos, an island, a beach, and stone bridge.
The pool has always been popular throughout its history and currently remains so with swimmers, wedding parties and for special events. I use to like coming here instead of visiting the beach since parking and the traffic were not anywhere as busy as the beach. Be sure to visit the pool at nighttime for a different feel.
