In case you’re wondering, this is not the official Basel day Rheinswim. That’s this for 2008. Also enjoyable but not to be compared to the nighttime experience. Nor is it the weekly Rheinswim, Tuesdays, starting from the Tinguely Museum. However, that might be a good place to rack up some Rhein-time, a must to have before swimming at night.
Well, because this event is rather meant for ‘Connoisseurs’ than show-offs, we prefer water temps above 22 degrees as well as above 25 degrees air temps for nightswims. The decision when nightswims are taking place is based on our indefinite Basel weather experience and the following links you can check yourself (yeah, check yourself! :-):
