Swimming in the Mediterranean

Swimming in the Med is wonderful. The water in summer is refreshingly cool, but not frigid. Of course, if you've grown up on Lake Erie, or any of the other great lakes, you have a different concept of "frigid."
It's also very salty so it takes very little effort to keep afloat. In places you can snorkel and find colorful small fish. The color of the water is a deep turquoise and totally clear. When you drop an anchor, for example, you can watch it descend 30 feet or so to the bottom. If you like to swim like I do, it's heavenly.
