What are the best cities for swimming?

These archeological sites offer many places to immerse and extinguish heat with local people:

1. Copenhagen, Denmark

A city surrounded by water, Copenhagen is a joy for swimmers, especially as mid-summer approaches and winter becomes a distant memory.

Amager Beach Park is a sandy beach perfect for afternoon walks. A two-mile artificial island creates a cool lake ready for rowing.

If leaving the city seems like a daunting task, the impressive harbor baths in the Islands Brygge and Fisketorvet are an effective alternative. The Daredevils can try diving boards while fitness enthusiasts can grow their legs in clean, cool water.

2. Zurich, Switzerland

Swiss love for diving into rivers and lakes is not limited to the High Alps. Zurich has 18 official baths, all of which offer crystal-clear waters in majestic waters.

The Tiefenbrunnen swimming pool, on the shores of Lake Zurich, is a masterpiece for its children's pool, diving boards, and a chance to get a post-swimming massage.

With something off the beaten path, men can try the Schanzengraben river lake, which dates back to 1864. The women-only Stadthausquai Lake is a treasure trove of art nouveau with views of the old town.

3. London, England

Although swimming plans in the Thames are far from over, London has many irrigation ports that arrive on their own when the English capital is sweating.

Head north to the open areas of Hampstead Heath for a delicious bath of fresh water in one of the three swimming pools in the park.

The wide Tooting Bec Lido, located southwest of the city, is a 300-foot-long [91 m] lake with a base for dedicated swimmers and serial splashers.

Brockwell Lido of South London has the bonus of a top-notch cafe. Central Hyde Park has an amazing hidden swimming pool in Serpentine Lido.

4. Hong Kong

The sticky heat of Hong Kong means that swimming in cool water is a must when summer arrives.

At Repulse Bay, the water slowly recedes to the surface, making it an ideal place for immersion. With a busy but fun-filled swim, Shek O offers stunning views to swimmers from the crowded beach.

Those who can get out of the city center can still take advantage of swanky hotel pools. The W's 76th-floor oasis has a harbor view and a long cocktail menu for post-rowing relaxation.

5. Vancouver, Canada

Vancouver's fascination with all the outside makes it the best city in Canada for anyone who wants to go for a walk. The beaches here are amazing.

To keep yourself quiet away from crowds, Third Beach is the place to be.

On the seawall of Stanley Park, its calm water is good for long periods of breastfeeding. Best of all, guests can bring their barbecue.

Trout Lake Beach has a dedicated swimming pool, its green waters are a more pleasant experience than any other saltwater thing around the city.

6. Sydney, Australia

Home to the world's largest natural harbor and one of Australia's best beaches, Sydney is a water-based city.

Swimmers should divert divers from Bondi and instead go to Clovelly Bay. At a height of 350 feet [350 m] and a width of 100 feet [60 m], the raging waters subside those huge waves, the last of the seabed.

For a private paddle, check out the South West Arm Pool. Disconnected when the waves are low, this saltwater swimming pool is unlike any other in the Oz.

7. Lisbon, Portugal

Although Lord Byron swims and swims across the inaccessible Tagus, swimmers who spend the summer in the Portuguese capital full of hips will find wild water easy to find.

The railway line from the city center east to Cascais is blessed with a vast expanse of sand and green waves.

For those who are not tempted to take the train, the Inspira Santa Marta hotel offers buses to the beaches of Carcavelos and Guincho. It will even throw towels into the sea so that guests do not have to weigh themselves when packing.

8. Paris, France

The annual Paris Plages event sees the Seine coast transformed. The sandy beaches overflow the river, as well as the temporary cool lake in the center of town.

This will be a welcome change in the current situation in Paris, where floods have left part of the river Seine underwater.

For swankier swimming, there is a Molitor. The most popular swimming pool in Paris, the magnificent area remained inactive for 25 years until 2014, when it reopened as one of the hottest hotels in the city. Each of the 124 rooms has a large lido view of the yard.

9. New York

Five Boroughs is blessed with beautiful outdoor pools, essential for anyone at Big Apple during the hot summer months. There are more than 50 options.

There is also a real local experience - leaving Manhattan behind and taking the subway to Astoria in Queens, where there is a huge 50-meter-wide lake the size of the Olympics.

Anyone suffering from heatstroke in Greenpoint or Williamsburg can try their favorite hipsters' water hangout at McCarren Park Lake, which opened in 1936.

10. Berlin, Germany

The merlin may be far from the sea, but swimming is at its heart thanks to a series of postcard pools.

There is an ancient lake at Wannsee, which was opened to the public in 1907 and is still thriving because of the clear fresh water and ace waterslide.

To the east is the glorious Muggelsee, a lido with strings and a children's playground.
