The 50m pool is between 2-2.5m deep and slightly colder (28ºC).
Accommodation is onsite at the GeTur tourist complex.
Alessandro has been describing the set-up for the October competition and it sounds like it will be all class: 8 underwater cameras with big screen feeds, professional commentator, national Italian TV, and much more.
I don't know if I am allowed to pass on the figure for prize money, but I can attest that it is significant.
Will.
I assume though that Bill's comment about a lack of a dedicated no-fins section means that a no-fins would be in the 50m? A pity that there's no chance of having a crack at that.
