💨 Abstract
Wild swimming is surging in the Netherlands due to rising temperatures. Amsterdam now has 13 legal spots for canal, pond, or river swimming, up from just one in 2023. Popular sites include the Marineterrein, a former naval base with no showers or lifeguards. Residents of all ages enjoy swimming, including skinny dipping. The city regularly tests water quality, ensuring safety. Despite official sites, many still swim in unofficial locations.
