I love the smell of cool freshwater on hot rock. Bent's Basin is a great freshwater swimming hole in the Nepean River in Sydney's west.
I enjoyed circumnavigating the water on the day I was here, lazily breaststroking, the only person swimming (though others were picnicking). The water was cool and the sun was warm. Afterwards, I lay on a rock, like a lizard, until I got too hot, and jumped back in for another ten minutes float.
that sounds idyllic, wonderful that you have such great swimming spots on your doorstep!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Marina. Hopefully, I'll be getting around to a few more freshwater swimming holes during the summer, so I'll post a few photos of those too
