Description:

yes, indeed, it is very possible to swim that far up North. The water was barely salty to boost so the skin didn't feel all that hitchy afterward?

I am from the Netherlands and too swam in Finland, in the (sp?) Botnic Gulf there, off the coast near Rauma.. was happy though a sauna was nearby, cause 18 degrees then is really on the cold side. But yeah I was told 22, 24 in August water temp, was regular.

I can't say it was that warm. The only problem is the wind really. I'm from Britanny myself, the sea there is just as ...warm/cold really, with definitely more salt which I can easily live without LOL

The temperature in the lake at the end of my road is +23C (Tampere). Beautiful! Swimming in winter isn't too bad either -- as long as you go straight from the sauna!

I only arrived fairly recently in your country; I guess with lots of precenceived ideas. Incidently I'm about to leave to the beach for yet another bath. ;-)
