Olympic swimming pools
An Olympic swimming pool measures 50 meters in length, 25 meters in width, and at least 2 meters deep, providing a standardized environment for international competitions. It contains ten lanes, each 2.5 meters wide, with distinct markings and a starting block at one end. The pool includes advanced features like precise timing systems, lane lines to reduce wave interference, and water treatment to maintain clarity and temperature around 25-28°C. These specifications ensure fairness, consistency, and optimal conditions for competitive swimming at the highest level.
