Best Swimming Spots

We both grew up in the water, spending our summers on Cape Cod and the Jersey Shore. Stumbling upon new swimming spots always excites us, so we’ve started a list of our favorite places to cool off!

Swimming with Manatees

I have a deep and unwavering love for manatees. Many people don’t even know what manatees are, and those who do usually find them to be unattractive. I can’t explain why I love them, but I always have.

Floating on the Nile

Laying in the refreshing water with the sun beating down on me, the gorgeous landscape along the Nile River made me second guess that this was real life. It was one of those rare moments in life when I’ve stopped and thought to myself “life is perfect right now.”

Disappearing Plunge

I saw Matt jump in the middle of the giant rock he was standing on, and then disappear into it. I had no idea where he went. He didn’t jump off. He didn’t land. But just submerged into the rock. Completely vanished.

Dipping in Buffalo Bay

Our spring break trip in South Africa included visiting an elephant sanctuary, riding ostriches, exploring underground caves, ziplining through a forest, and jumping off the highest bungee bridge in the world. However, one of the moments that remains most vivid, even nine years later, took place late one evening on a quiet beach.
