A pool day? Great!

There’s nothing quite like jumping into the pool on a hot summer’s day. Whether you want to cool off, have fun, work out or relax, the pool is the perfect place to go! There are tons of activities you can do in the pool. For example, you can play water polo, arrange friendly swimming races, join a game of water volleyball, go on an under- water treasure hunt, partake in aquafit classes or set up a diving competition (in- ground pools only). Of course, you can always play the classic game of Marco Polo.

If you want to float around and relax, that’s cool, too! You can sip on a cocktail, read a magazine or soak up some sun. There’s something for everyone — young and old alike.

HEATWAVE : A flood of refreshing ideas!

When a heatwave strikes, many activities become less appealing. However, there are still plenty of ways to enjoy summer without baking in the sun. Here are a few ideas: • Go to the beach or spend the day at the pool • Go scuba diving or snorkelling

If you don’t own a pool, find out if any facilities in your area offer free swim days at designated times. Indoor pools can be a great option on rainy days. Water parks are also a great option. However, head straight for the wave pool to avoid waiting in long lines in the blazing sun! • Visit a cave or cavern • Organize an epic water balloon or water-gun fight • Try a homemade ice cream recipe • Go on a boat ride or cruise around on a jet ski • Embrace the wind by water skiing or kite flying • Try hang-gliding or tandem paragliding • Go for a morning hike in the forest
