It holds over 3 million litres of water. That’s enough to fill 1,200 bathtubs. Or, as I like to think, enough to drown a very ambitious water polo team. Fact.
And get this: the water temperature is a constant 84°F (29°C). So you’re basically swimming in giant bathwater. That’s why you see grown adults floating with their eyes closed, humming spa music. It’s hypnotic.
The Wild Side: Lizards and Lies
Here’s a weird one: there’s a real-life iguana named Rex living in the “Tropical Lagoon” area. He’s a green iguana, and he judges you while you cannonball. I swear he smirks when you belly-flop. It’s a lizard, but it’s your lizard now.
Also, don’t be fooled by the “lazy river” name. It’s a trap. The current is strong enough to whisk away a small dog or a distracted toddler. Hold on to your floatie and your dignity.
