This site aims to record all the historic and presently used freshwater swimming places of Wales and hence to preserve the historic right to river swim and to introduce a new generation to this most ecological and healthy of pastimes.

To build this register we need your help, please let us know about any places you swim, have seen swimmers or used to swim. Use the link in the margin to submit the details however vague, or just for general comments.
