My favorite spot for a good swim

One of my favorite places to go in my off time to enjoy the outdoors and the ocean. Big hot tub, changing rooms and showers. Man made sea defences close off beautiful loon where the ocean mixes with warm geothermal water, so you can enjoy the ocean in a higher temperature. Beautiful walk as well, which takes aprox. 25 min.
