Question of the week: Do you have any recommendations for things to do to take advantage of the last weeks of summer? "Before it gets too cold to even consider swimming outside, head to Hyde Park or Hampstead Heath and try swimming in a more wild atmosphere!
The Serpentine Lido in Hyde Park will be open every day until September 12th, from 10am to 6pm, and it's a great place to go if you feel like swimming with the ducks that make the Serpentine their home.
If you want to try something even less 'controlled' try going to Hampstead Heath and going to one of their Swimming Ponds. There's one for men, one for women, and one for everyone! The ponds feel more secluded than the Hyde Park lido, they're surrounded by trees, while the lido has a more beach-like feel. The ponds are also open year-round, but I'm not sure how much longer the weather will be right for swimming!"- Kris
