Wild, cold-water swimming beaches
This collection gathers beaches that sit 50 degrees or more of latitude from the equator on an open ocean coast, outside the enclosed seas and the Great Lakes, where sea temperature puts swimming closer to wild, cold water swimming than resort bathing. 925 beaches meet the rule.
