Pool bars are for amateurs, pro drinkers dbl fist in the ocean. Sharks? I pity the shark.

I would also like to add that splashing in the ocean is much more fun, as salt water burns the eyes!

That is the first thing I thought - How do they clean it/keep it clean?

I really doubt that the water gets changed. Most likely some sort of a state of the art water filtration/chemical application system. To actually drain and change the water would be ridiculous. The time required for that operation is far too steep for a place of that nature.

Sorry sir/mam, you can't go for a swim for the next week.

True, except in this case, Chile is not a country that is known for having sharks in their waters. I do agree, though, that it's much better to go to a pool than to a polluted and dirty ocean, especially when the pool looks like this.

i would rather go swimming in the ocean. I mean you get waves and real salt water vs chemically filled pooled.

The article explains that the ocean there is polluted and cannot be swam in on some days. It's sad and disgusting really.

I don't know how relaxing it would be to float in the ocean beside raw sewage.
