Flying Pool on Superyacht Will Take Your Breath Away

The Apache is a luxury superyacht concept with a flying pool concept that is taking social media by storm. The incredible yacht design was officially unveiled at this year’s Monaco Yacht Show. It’s larger than it’s predecessor Olokun at 250 feet. This vessel is equally as remarkable, owing to the skill of designer Alberto Mancini.

Flying Pool on Superyacht is Remarkable

Unquestionably the most striking feature of the Apache aside from its superstructure inspired by modern architecture is its fascinating flying pool design. The floating pool, which is 31 feet long, is suspended between the upper and main decks. It features a glass bottom, which creates an incredible floating effect. The glass pool floor allows natural light to enter the gym and lounge below the pool. Since the master suite has direct access to the pool deck, the Apache might just be the first megayacht to include this feature.

Giuseppe Mazza, Tankoa’s sales and marketing manager called the “flying pool” a “visionary idea.” Of course, a luxury superyacht with just one pool is so passe. Aside from its floating pool, the Apache has two additional pools located in the aft section of the ship. The vessel in the Beach Club is a floodable infinity pool with glass walls and folding side terraces.

A Superyacht Designed For Outdoor Living

When describing this feature of the yacht, designer Alberto Mancini said “I wanted to avoid the typical cave dark effect that today we see in many beach clubs. Indeed, Apache’s beach club design is not just an area for accessing the sea. It is not only to be enjoyed only when anchored during the day. Its fully integrated with the main deck salon. It can be used day or night as an extension of the outdoor living space.”

The flying pool is a standout feature in this outstanding vessel. Swimming in the elegantly suspended pool is like flying over water. The designers equate it to swimming through the yacht. The flying pool is located just above the bow gym atrium. Consequently, they’ve created a tastefully appointed space for owners and guests to work out or relax while taking in the view.

Without a doubt, luxury pools and superyachts are now intrinsically tied together. It should be noted that a second luxury yacht with a unique hole design is also making the rounds on social media.

Lazzarini Design Studio’s aptly named Shape superyacht features its own glass-bottom infinity pool. The design features a distinctive hollow-shaped sun deck where swimmers can be observed from below. Shape runs on hydrogen propulsion technology making it a 100% clean energy-powered vessel.
