Writer and editor Caroline Clements spent a year traveling around Australia to research for her book Places We Swim and then later, Places We Swim in Sydney.

Sydney

"This is in Cremorne point. You can see the harbor in the city from this spot. People always seem to be sort of taking things quite slow here."

Maccallum Seawater Pool

"It's this deep U shaped bay with a bridge so that you can get to this side where you can jump in. It's actually one of the most beautiful spots."

Parsley Bay Reserve

"We like to take friends on a big walk from Bondi through all those beaches to Tamarama Bronte and the Bronte baths and sort of end up around Coogee. There's quite a few swimming stops on this walk."

Bronte Baths

"It's tucked between North Head and Manly Cove. And there’s a little waterfall at the back of the beach and it's always very flat. You sort of perch up on rocks and you can swim right out around the bay and it's quite shallow, very family friendly."

Collins Flat Beach

"The beauty of this pool is that it fills and empties with the tides because it's filled by the ocean. It often gets a lot of sea life."
