What to wear and how photos work at our dips

The rules from our code of conduct for dipping in public, including why our dips are no nudist events and how to opt out of photos.

What to wear

Our dips take place in public. Some people go into the water without clothes, but that is neither the purpose of our dips nor a requirement, so please keep in mind that passers-by can see you and that German rules on public decency apply. A swimsuit is never wrong, and warm layers for afterwards matter much more than whatever you wear in the water.

Photos and chats

We have an opt-out photo policy, so if you would rather not be in any pictures, just tell the person taking them, which is often Philipp. Our chats are no dating app, and anyone sending unsolicited private messages will be removed. You can read all of our rules on the code of conduct page.
