Indoor Scuba Waterpark

[Paradocs1111]

Does anyone think that a indoor water park designed by scuba divers for scuba diving, lessons, birthday parties, year round, night diving, salt water ,aquatic life and tropical fish, caves, tunnels, 40-50 foot depth, multiple linked pools, sand, gravel bottom, metal detecting games, photography, attractions, rentals, scuba shop, cafe....would you dive here? Inland diving is so seasonal, visibility is poor or variable, aquatic life in fresh water is interesting, but tropical aquarium grade sea life would be amazing. Let me know thoughts, pros, cons.

you got millions of dollars you want to donate for that project?

If you have a spare $50 million lying around to build something like that it would probably be successful.

I'd totally dive in a place like that.
It would be my option when conditions suck and it's not possible to dive in the Ocean...
Also a good way to practice skills, new underwater toys etc.

There are some places like that, like this one in Italy (deepest pool in the world) Hotel Terme Millepini - Wikipedia

I think it would catch on. A thing like that would cost a fortune though.

It would be very popular but probably not pay for itself.

I'd stay there even if i was a local.

Well if it was at one end of Mall of America 2 with casino and brewery, perhaps it would get enough traffic to make money, being a part of a destination.

It’s a great idea, but figuring how to make it pay is another animal.
