Swimming in the city
Publish date: 5 July 2021
Enjoy a cool summer swim, either in the archipelago or in the middle of Stockholm.
The waterways of Stockholm are not only beautiful to look at, they are so clean and clear you can take a dip right in the middle of town. There are not a lot of cities in the world that can make that claim! There are several lovely beaches to bask on and cliffs to jump from, in and around the city. Here are a few examples.
Water quality
The Swedish Agency for Marine and Water Management does regular testings of the water quality at the EU bathing sites in the country and have an interactive map showing the quality of the water.
