I love to swim but the ocean it seems you can get lost in. I’d love to swim in a small lake where there is fresh instead of salt water.
People doing this are also doing these things:

I live near Lake Ontario and we have a boat there so we go swimming all the time :]
everyone live in america so i bet its hot and the lakes are beautiful, were I live in the UK it’s not too nice and everyone warns you might get some disese or something/owell
Me and my friend go like once a month to the river near my house to swim, I dare say its a bit dangerous a its cold and deep but its so much fun and we always come back totally drenched! Theres a horrid picture of us below before we went in.
I have not done it in the past 4 years….I miss it

not a dammed-up river. Yes, it will probably have critters in it, like snapping turtles, beavers, and giardia. Worth the risk, though.
Through synchronicity, I met a woman who boats regularly on a local lake. She seems to suffer with Fibromyalgia worse than I do, and invited me to go with her on her boat one day and try swimming again.
It’s been so long since I’ve been in the water that I wasn’t exactly doing even normal “dog paddles”, but I got down in water up to my head, and worked my legs for a good couple of ours!
The universe turned in ways that helped me do this! I’ve never been in the water of a lake before, and I’ve not been swimming at all in 15 years!!!
Swimming in a Lake is one of my favorite things to do. My 2 all time favorite Lakes are Lake Tahoe (California/Nevada) and Lake Michigan (Michigan/Illinois/Indiana/Wisconsin).
This past summer we were fortunate to visit both, yet again. I find it one of the most relaxing things to do. Here is a photo of my son, taking in the beauty and all that surrounds Lake Tahoe.
