Lake Magic Swimming Pool - Salt Bath

Salt Bath - Lake Magic’s swimming Pool

Denis Collins constructed a 20m round, 6m deep swimming pool-like gypsum pond whose buoyancy and therapeutic properties are greater than those of the Dead Sea.

What better place to update one’s gardening skills whilst lying back with a sensation of weightless with the sun cooking you as one floats effortlessly.You could spend all day in there if there wasn’t a threat of third degree burns!
More buoyant than the Dead Sea. It’s like sitting on a noodle under the water or sitting on a submerged inflatable device but there’s nothing there, what you notice is swimming is actually more difficult as we learn to become buoyant, it’s impossible to sink, the water is a vibrant turquoise blue and extremely salty. You become aware you can actually put your hands in the air without putting your feet on the bottom , bobbing up and down (it’s 6m deep ) or put your hands behind your head or reading a book with your legs crossed infront of you which usually you would sink! A surreal experience in a stark beautiful location next to Lake Magic.
