I've always wanted to try this, but so far I've never had the opportunity. I would start off with a low dose of something you're familiar and comfortable with and work your way up.

I did it.
It was on my bucketlist because I thought it would be next level awesome. But like many things during a trip, it got a bit complicated. The mechanics of it. Once I was in the water it was no longer complicated though. You just have to go for it and it usually turns out to be remarkably easy.
But I have to say, it was a bit underwhelming.
I was tripping, yes. I was swimming, yes. But it remained just tripping and swimming. I guess I expected amazing synergy, as with music and tripping, or drawing and tripping. It wasn't there. It was just regular tripping and regular swimming. If that makes sense.

Are you a good swimmer? Is it an indoor/outdoor pool?
I've gone swimming on changa, it was super awesome meditating under water like that.

I'm ok in swimming. Lake.
Too dangerous. Not going to do it.
Girl told me, there's air in water, ...so maybe if you know how, you can breath air underwater. ?

Yeah, a lake could be a dangerous setting. I wouldn't recommend it.
When i swam on changa the few times that i did, it was in an indoor pool about 6 feet deep. Not to mention i'm a pretty good swimmer.

I went swimming in the ocean while tripping on LSD and it was one of the most amazing experiences ever. It feels like you're flying, and being inside this endless water you really feel connected to nature in a way very different from being in the woods or desert. I definitely recommend everyone to try it at least once. Be safe though, choose a day when there are no strong currents and have some people with you.

I would say only do this if you are both very comfortable with tripping and very experienced with being in the water.

Come on, if's not that dangerous. If you're not in some crazy ocean with currents you're absolutely fine.
If you trip at home you have all kinds of potential dangers lying around. I trip and burn candles and never set my hair on fire. I trip and cook and never cut my own wrists accidentally.
You're just going to swim.

I remember reading a trip report a few months ago where the OP's friend almost drowned and ended up in the hospital while tripping and swimming.

I believe it's mostly frowned upon in the 'online psychedelic community.' Mostly because drug website are mostly about harm reduction.
But in the non virtual world, I can think off the top of my head at least 5 festivals I know of that have a river or lake incorporated into the experience.
I've done it a bunch and it's so much fun, as long as your one of those people who has a lot of fun swimming around, or are with some fun people.

Took this pic standing in the middle of a river while on acid in Mexico. A spot where a river mouth met an ocean, only god knows what the F was in that water, but the sunset was beautiful, and the current rushing over us was amazing. The kids were pulling out these scary ass things though. And yes, always play safe in the water, know your limits!

When I visited Puerto Rico, I went swimming on a lowish dose acid trip(It was 1 tab and I had a bit of a tolerance). The swimming was great and refreshing. I went snorkeling on the comedown, and my vision filled with a light overlay of visuals while I saw fish.
It was quite beautiful.

Yea I think you just keep forcing the water in and out of your lungs and they extract the oxygen.
Haha just kidding bro but - drop that psycho killer gf; she's obviously trying to bump you off, probably so she can have all the catnip to herself. 
I've had multiple dreams breathing underwater. Shit's strange. I think that could be my next lucid dream

I went swimming at 8am one.morning after an all night trip. Didn't sleep at all and just went swimming on a whim.
It was the most peaceful, tranquil thing I think I ever experienced. It was hard swimming because I was so drained but floating on my back starting at the sky lighting up from the sunrise was PRICELESS. was so crisp, clean and refreshing.
Definitely suggest swimming AFTER tripping, not during lmao.

I have a pool in my back yard and there's nothing like a microdose on a summer day, drink in my hand, floating in my big-ass pool chair. Looking at the sky and the clouds, looking at the ripples in the water. Heavenly.
On a heavy trip I would not even consider the pool. Not because I'm afraid of drowning - that will never happen. It's more about the trouble of dealing with being wet, bathing suit, drying off, changing. Big pain in the ass. I prefer to trip at night in the safety of my room, bed, music, darkness.

here's a partial trip report on an unmeasured dose of mushrooms
[as we walk from the parking lot to the water]there was dense green forests to our left & the Chesapeake in front of us. There where loads of people out. We sat on the beach behind a couple who had a radio playing good music. I stripped to my boxers (all I had) and walked out into the bay to where I could barely stand and looked out over the water and the light reflecting off the small waves with the bay bridge in the distance. I began to giggle HAHA's and smiled like a big kid. I hear my name and turn to see that one of the dudes I was with was coming out, about chest deep. He dunked his shoulders in and remarked how crazy this was. Retreating in some I said: yeah how about we swim out to the buoy? He said he wasn't such a good swimmer, but that he had an uncle who used to swim out to islands, have some drinks and swim back. I thought that sounded remarkable and invigorated me to reach the buoy. He said I was crazy and went back to shore. I breast stroked it past where my feet could reach the sand, out by the buoy and stayed there a while, looking at the shore with its inhabitants and out at the shimmering bay. A single silver fish about a foot long swam by about three feet away from me taking his sweet time. My head had been dry up to this point. I was really starting to feel the come up, so I dunked my head under, popped up and started a backstroke for shore.
will go to the shore tripping again. next time i want to try waves.
-------------------- But if you're in a hurry, and really got to go If you're in a hurry, might have to find out slow That it's one thing to try and another to fly You get there quicker just a step at a time It's one thing to bark, another to bite The show ain't over till you pack up at night

I've been swimming on acid and also driven a boat on acid. As long as you know what you can handle and where you are in your trip you should be fine.
Swimming felt so amazing to me on acid. It was like the water was hugging me at some points and at other points going through me. I could feel the waves pass through me.
And driving a boat on acid was fun too. I drove out to the middle of the lake with my other friend who was tripping and threw out the anchor and fished. At the time it may have been a bad idea though because we didn't have tags for the boat or fishing licenses.

Same here man. Last time I was at the lake on LSD the water looked so beautiful and colorful. And I cought a ton of fish and as I was attempting to filet them I couldn't help but think about the circle of life. It felt complete because I had caught my own food, given thanks to him, then eaten him. He gave back the energy he had taken from the universe by giving it to me and eventually one day I will give my energy back too.

I went for a short swim in ice cold ocean. I was on acid, all by myself, no people around. It was on a wild rocky coast. The current was strong and it bashed me against the rocks. I took a chug of sea water. Decided to come out quickly, it felt dangerous.
What was interesting that this short swim temporarily healed my foot for a few days. It was injured in a bike crash 2.5 months earlier.
Overall the swim experience was great. I loved to be part of this vast ocean. I could feel how powerful it is. My leg was bleeding after I came out.
