Today many people took part in swimming in the ocean in Reykjavik. 
It is to celebrate the art of swimming , and for people to swim more. 
Icelandic Coast Guard had two of its boats there to take part in the celebration.
They even had a swimming race , from the Coast Guard boat , to land . 
But they also just enjoyed swimming , and sang along as the swam in the cold sea. 
The outside temperature was at 6 on the celcius and the sea water temp, was 7 degrees on the celcius.
