In the old days, we used to swim in lakes, or ponds.  A European trend of man made swimming holes may to be gaining ground in North America. The New York Times has a feature article on these self-cleaning ponds, which combine swimming areas and water gardens.  Water quality is ensured thanks to an engineered system which uses, among other things, plants and algae for natural filtration.

Reminds me of swimming at my grandfather's cottage in Ontario, Canada - full of algae and leeches, but CLEAN water! Most think "clean" means than unnatural blue colour and chemical smell...
