Ah, Goo Lagoon. A stinky mud puddle to you and me, but to the inhabitants of Bikini Bottom, a wonderful stinky mud puddle.
In real life, goo is a substance called brine. Brine forms underwater pools of a darker color because its salinity is several times greater than the surrounding ocean. Since SpongeBob SquarePants takes place underwater, the characters swim and surf in brine since they are already surrounded by seawater.
Goo Lagoon is broken down into sections, which include Mussel Beach, Goo Lagoon Sea Caves, the Snack Bar and the Goo Lagoon Pier amusement park.
The Salty Spitoon - A sailor's club near Goo Lagoon, intended for tough fish only. SpongeBob tries to get into this club in the episode "No Weenies Allowed."
Frank is a lifeguard. Larry the Lobster, a regular at the beach, also serves as a lifeguard. He can always be found here, either lifting weights, surfing, or lifeguarding. SpongeBob also once serves as a lifeguard in "SpongeGuard on Duty."
Goo Lagoon Sea Caves (2) - A large cavern in Goo Lagoon. The only way to get here is over a rope bridge, from the sand castle. Inside, there are cave drawings.

Biography
Goo Lagoon is where most Bikini Bottom citizens spend their leisure time. In some episodes, there is an orange sign outside the beach that says "Welcome to Goo Lagoon."
It is not an actual lagoon, but is a lake, as seen in many episodes of the series. Activities at Goo Lagoon include surfing, dancing, volleyball, weight-lifting, and tanning. Goo Lagoon does not contain water but instead it contains goo.
When compared to the Sand Mountain ski resort, Goo Lagoon is its summer counterpart. The weather is usually sunny at Goo Lagoon during the summer months. During winter, many people flock to Sand Mountain. At some times, there is very windy weather.
There is a huge boat parking area out at the front of Goo Lagoon, and in Revenge of the Flying Dutchman, there is a bus stop. In the Employee of the Month video game, the beach has a tanning salon, which is run by a fish named Ray. There is a workout area for all of the beach buffs who hang out at the beach, called Mussel Beach.
Events and competitions that the beach holds include the anchor toss competition, a weightlifting competition, a surfing competition, and a sand castle competition.
