Wasserwelt has become a little more digital with VR snorkelling. Bathers can now experience this extraordinary offer at another location, namely the Wasserwelt resort in Braunschweig, Germany, literally blurring the boundaries between reality and virtuality.
High above and low below
With this offer, Wasserwelt is initially launching two different programmes for guests to choose from. These are called "Ocean" and "Space". Depending on which programme they choose, guests can either embark on a journey through coral reefs and shipwrecks, curiously accompanied by turtles, manta rays, colourful fish and mighty whales, or experience weightlessness while floating in space with a view of various planets and move through a space station like astronauts. Further virtual experiences are already being planned.
Bookable from the end of May
Especially when gliding through space, floating in the water intensifies the feeling of weightlessness and allows the guest to emerge with an astonished smile. The programmes played last just under five minutes each. Anyone wishing to try out this world first can book VR snorkelling directly at the Wasserwelt ticket office for just 4 euros in addition to admission. To prevent virtual world guests from getting in the way of other guests or facilities, VR snorkelling takes place in the active pool. Snorkellers are secured with a harness and can therefore float undisturbed in their own area of the pool. The course can be booked from the end of May.
