Winter Swimming is the activity of swimming during the winter season, typically in outdoor locations (Open water swimming), or in unheated pools or lidos. Many winter swimmers swim with standard swimming costumes rather than with wetsuits or other thermal protection.

In colder countries winter swimming may be synonymous with Ice swimming.

A polar bear plunge is a brief dip in cold water, often for fun or charitable purposes.
