Räkan
Räkan is a northern Swedish coastal spot in the Arctic region with cold saltwater and variable conditions typical of high-latitude swimming. Best suited for advanced swimmers with experience in cold-water and marine environments. Tip: extreme seasonal variation means summer (June-August) is the only practical swimming window; water remains near 10°C even in peak season.
