Best Places To Take A Dip in Nature

You don’t always have to go to the pool or the beach to take a swim. Nature offers many crannies and crevices that contain clean and clear water. The best part about taking advantage of one of nature’s pools? The views! Here are some of the best places to take a dip throughout the world.

Fairy Pools- Scotland

In Glen Brittle there are quite a few pools that contain aquamarine water. The water that makes up the Fairy Pools comes from the waterfalls of the Cullin Mountains. They can be accessed by hiking trails, although the terrain can be tricky. The water itself is quite cold so you may want to save that swim until the summer months.

Sliding Rock, North Carolina

Sliding Rock not only has a natural wading pool, but it’s very own “rock slide”. Visitors slide down a series of rocks that are very slippery and plunge into the water down below. It’s nature’s version of a waterslide.

To Sua Ocean Trench, South Pacific

This natural pool is sort of magical. Located in Somao, swimmers have to climb down a very steep ladder in order to access it, which can be quite thrilling in and of itself. For those that are strong swimmers and can hold their breath for a long time, they can actually swim underneath the pool’s rock tunnel and go out into the ocean. However, most people stay put when they are in To Sua Ocean Trench as the atmosphere is quite relaxing.

Gunlom Plunge Pool Australia

Located in Kakadu, this pool has one of the most breathtaking views. Visitors can see the Kakadu National Park. The best time to visit the Gunlom Plunge Pool is in the evening as the sun sets and the sky changes colors. If you do visit it in the evening, don’t forget to take a flashlight along with you so that you can easily find your way back.

Las Grietas Ecuador

Located in Puerto Ayora, Las Grietas is sandwiched between two tall cliffs. In order to get to it, visitors generally take a boat ride from Santa Cruz’ main dock. Many visitors bring along snorkeling gear with them so that they can see the amazing coral reef down below. It’s not uncommon to see those that can’t swim wearing a life jacket so that they can jump right in and enjoy the water.

The world is filled with many amazing places to take a dip. Do you have any favorite places to swim that are out of the ordinary?
