Or is swimming for pleasure, Assur, across the board, among all Orthodox Rabbis?

Just want to say that this post really bothers me... someone who is not shomer shabbos cannot be a rabbi, as this is one of the biggest aveiros! And is shomer shabbos your only qualification to trust a rabbi????

OP clearly asked about for pleasure.

Where is it? Brooklyn?

Simple. I think theres all levels of observance even among Orthodox Rabbis, who give different psakim and heterim for different issues, so instead of saying Orthodox, I asked about Shomer Shabbos.

I think that too.
Aamof I was so sure that I remembered hearing that the terrible helicopter accident many years ago where 6 people died, happened in the 9 days, but I checked the date from the newspaper and Hebcal, it happened after Shabbos Nachamu.

I thought that sakana was the reason it was forbidden, not pleasure. Which is it? Or is it both?

I'm Sephardic and we are allowed to swim just no meat.

People think they could shop for opinions, instead of asking their rav.
Does it really matter what other people are doing? Unless OP has a swimming pool and people are asking to use it during the nine days or is dealing with children or a spouse that are telling her that someone allows swimming. In which case, the problem isn't the swimming but that the family needs more connection to a rav.

We once had a blackout in the 9 days on a very particulaly hot day. There was no air conditioning. This was in a Chassidish bungalow colony. The dayan on premises instructed that all pregnant women should go into the pool. I'm not sure what he paskened about the rest but this I clearly remember.

Drinking plenty of water would probably have done the trick too.
Or are you talking about on 9 Av?

A sprinkler would probably be a better solution. Afaik that’s fine in the 9 days….maybe creating extra laundry though…

Huh? FTR there are Conservative rabbis who are shomer shabbos. I know frum BTs (now fully Orthodox) who.got their first exposure to.kiruv through them. They are personally shomer shabbos but what used to be called "conservadox" so they'd daven in a shul without a mechitzah, etc. There's a reason the advice for these type of questions is usually AYLOR not a "shomer shabbos rabbi."

That's what I was thinking. Or a long cool shower/ soak in a tub.

My kids went to The Zone camp last year, and my son said they went swimming during the 9 days (he's a teenager and knew what was what, not a little kid who didn't recall that there was no swimming for a week)
