Do you like summer?
I love open water swimming, but it can be very dangerous. So yeah I love summer and swimming in the ocean. But its one thing sot spend the day at the each verses doing some serious Ocean or distance swimming.
I really prefer river swimming, I mean in the Sierra Nevada its all snow melt and it clear water, not the muddy murky waters of the East Coast. So it amazing cool, and refreshing water to swim in.

+1 yThere was one time where we surfaced the boat and had a swim call in the middle of nowhere. The fathometer couldn’t find the bottom it was so deep. No life vests, and they stationed the 240 gunner in the sail in case of sharks. It was simultaneously the most terrifying and exhilarating occasion I’ve ever been swimming.

+1 yEven if I could swim, I still wouldn't swim in a sea or ocean. I've just learned about riptides, and I don't want to be caught up in them. Riptides are deadly. Not to mention that I may get attacked by sharks and other sea animals that attacks humans,

I sincerely like swimming in the sea or in the lake. Honestly, don’t like ocean too much because is too cold and waves are too much big. I prefer our quiet sea or maybe the lakes we have in northern Italy.
I don’t like summer as season since it’s too hot, I sweat a lot and suffer for that, and often people’s morals and costumes get really shabby during that season.23 Reply339 opinions shared on Travel topic. As long as there are some decent waves, and the water isn't too cold, I'm there. I finally replaced my old Boogie Board a couple of years ago - the old one was worn out.
10 ReplyNo because the water is salty

. Here in Finland, these apartments cost millions of dollars each, and the beach is full of goosshit. The ones with the beach view cos about 9 million euros.

Yesss
I love swimming in the ocean when I can. We have lakes here in Texas but they aren't clear and the Gulf of Mexico is the dirtiest water as far as an ocean or sea goes. Just soo murky. At aleast in Galveston it is.
10 ReplyI LOVE the ocean.
There's something magical about that place where ocean meets land, and out for miles as far as the eye can see, it's just perfect, flat, endless horizon.
The constant rhythmic woosh of the waves and the energy in their current. To jump in the water, and go deep, it's an incredible place to lose yourself in and just be.
I must go down to the sea again.
