    Oh my god! And the Island Living icon shows up on the home screen This gets me so excited.

    @Mindofy @yupp I just checked Brindleton Bay, no wading or swimming options unfortunately.

    Yeah. It's quite weird. This is the deepest I got my Sim to go in the Oakenstead lot of Willow Creek.

    Magnolia Promenade also allowed my Sim to go quite far in to the pond.

    My theory is that some weird Island Living code got mixed up with some of the already released worlds. Windenburg and Brindleton Bay also had some wade here options, but they were very little in to the water.

    Oh, and you can no longer go under water in the TAB camera mode. So there's that too.

    While you're excited that poor guy has to go on patrol in wet trousers! :D
    But that is an awesome discovery!

    Hey, that can actually help on a really hot day … just sayin'.

    It's not mixed up code. Developers simply updated the worlds.

    You can't use TAB to go underwater in TS3 either. It's to make it more immersive.

    Looks cool, but I don't think this is fully optional (yet). If it was, they would all change into swim wear by themselves...

    Can still be used as something to do, though. Even if the sims don't tell a difference, we can enjoy it :) I just hope NPCs won't route into the water in just any outfit.

    Clearly not a finished design but super exciting :D The water ripples around them show that the game understands they are in water too which is encouraging.

    That's fantastic news!

    Wading in shallow water is as much contributing to the summer vacation experience as actual swimming (For me, at least).

    Update the pond in windenburg in the country has the option as well :). No island though I checked. It’s cool I like that they added it. I means it’s possible to open up for sure.

    I absolutely adore this!

    The worlds feel much more open and sims can roam through more places in the worlds.

    Look how far sims can go in Magnolia Promenade! You can literally go to the ducks now!

    It works in Windenburg as well! At the island and countryside neighborhood!

    I bet they're working on including swimming in those worlds as well, just haven't finished it yet! Swimming should come to other worlds as well!

    Can't leave a screenshot due to my rank but I found that the Sims can go wading in frozen rivers. Hopefully that's patched soon.

    I've noticed they're not getting into their swimwear, is anyone having issues with Sims getting into their swimwear when in pools now? I just sent soon to go swimming in her backyard swimming pool and she went in her pajamas ...

    Most likely a mod confliction if you have it active. For me it was MCC so I took it out for now.

    Oasis Springs river lets sims wade quite deep and they come real close to the fishes:

    Windenburg Island allows for "Go here" at the beach, but no wading options for me.

    tumblr_ptbih8eHII1t1fm14o1_540.jpg

    For some reason Windenburg Lake (by Ulrike's house) didn't let my sims wade in. I'll need to click again more carefully I guess.

    Finally Brindleton Bay has two well hidden wading spots:

    Has anybody tried this in that pond in the Selvadoradian jungle where there's snapping crocodiles in the water?
