With it being so hot, you’ve got to have a pool day on your Vegas vacay itinerary. Seriously, how could you endure this heat without it? And if you’re in need of a seriously snazzy place to take a dip, consider diving into The Tank Pool.
With a 200,000-gallon aquarium in the dead center of The Tank Pool and Hideout Pool complex, The Tank Pool offers a swimming experience like none other. Swim right beside fascinating creatures like nurse sharks, black tip sharks, varied jackfish and stingrays. If that’s not quite close enough for you, take a ride down the water slide to submerge yourself right into a swarm of sharks as you shoot through the center.(Fun fact: Some of the fishy friends that swirl around in this complex are more than 20 years old and capable of living for many more!)
This spot is kid-friendly (with this much fun, how could it not be?), but if your ideal pool day lacks little ones, sneak away to The Hideaway, a 21+ area with its own pool and bar. You can also have adults-only fun all over the pool complex during Friday Night Swim where fireworks, DJs and specialty beverages make for a spectacular swim. Better yet, there’s no cover! Book cabanas or daybeds to elevate a day here, and make sure you stop by the H2O Bar for a refreshing Shark Attack, made with Malibu coconut rum, Bacardi rum, blue Curaçao, Sprite and pineapple juice.
