10 Wild Places to swim!

Hey peeps,


So as most of you know I am an adrenalin junkie, I like to try things that look dangerous. This lead me to find the wildest places that you can go for a swim, so on my research I found this article which I thought I would share with you 


Number one is my favourite as I blogged about it last year as that is on my wish list :)

Do you dare swim in the Devil's Pool, just meters away from the edge of the falls? A rock wall beneath the surface of the water stops you from plunging 100m down.

A "blue hole" is an underwater sinkhole. At 202 meters, Dean's Blue Hole in the Bahamas is the deepest of all, a thrill for swimmers and divers.

Gaze at the snow-capped French Alps while you swim in turquoise Lake Annecy. "Europe's cleanest lake" also offers cruises and other lake sports.

Surprise, the water glows in the dark! Pick a moonless night to swim in the glittering bay, lit up by thousands of single-cell organisms.

Swim among the pulsating, harmless golden jellyfish that migrate daily across this South Pacific lake. People say there's no other place like it.
