I'm taking a casual poll of the "Best Places to Swim in the World" for a freelance story I'm working on. The topic is very open-ended: I'm looking for anything from the best place for an open-water swim, i.e. La Jolla Cove, to an olympic pool with an amazing setting, i.e. North Sydney Olympic Pool.
Your ideas would be most helpful to me; from the well-known watering holes to off-the-beaten spots, from swimming holes to hotel pools...And please note why you love swimming there.
When it comes to pools...the pool I grew up in as a kid is still the neatest pool I have ever swam in, seen or read about...The Venetian Pool in Coral Gables, Florida is still #1 in my book!
The pool has caves, beach, bridge and a rock cliff that is 30 feet high...(it used to be a high dive area...but was closed due to our litigious society).
The pool is straight out of the 1920's...truly magnificent.
