I do hope that we will be able to use the new activities in other worlds. That they are not restricted to Tortosa. I have made a few cute churches were my Sims can exchange vows and have a party after and also bakeries and flower shops.
As for swimming, in the picture were we see the beach and the lighthouse there seems to be a couple of Sims in the water
I'm sure you can use the activities everywhere. Those activities are probably mostly new party types for which you can simply choose any lot in the game.
Hmm… I’m not sure where this info came from, but supposedly one of the gurus said there was a swimmable area? If that’s true, then I wonder if the beach area is where sims can swim. (My mermaids/merfolk would definitely love that!)
I guess the waterfall lake will be swimmable. You can see a little picture here under "Our story"
I wonder if that boat dock on the lighthouse island is functional and that's how you can travel to that spot? I'm seeing a fenced path from the dock up onto the tiny island area? We have functional sailboats in Sulani, maybe now we have functional small motorboats too?
ETA: Oh wait, I think that lighthouse spot is at the end of a peninsula rather than on an island. So maybe our sims can walk down to that little boat dock and use the boats because there's definitely a path down to the dock?

I think it's functional in some way because I see boats out on the water. Wonder if sims can ride the boats or use them to fish.
Most of the worlds that have been introduced since IL have had swimmable water. Britechester, Mt. Komorebi and Henford on Bagley for sure. I am sure this one will too. They haven't figured out how to add it to older worlds but they seem dedicated to adding it to new ones (except Evergreen Harbor, an old quarry swimming hole would have been awesome).

That would be awesome if we could fish and/or swim from the boats!

The best thing I've seen so far is that so many people have such varying ideas of what part(s) of the real world inspired Tartosa. This pleases me so much because it means that it'll be so much easier for everyone to imagine that it's based on their own personal favorites.
FYI: Just because you can see my signature, don't assume that I can see yours.
Because I can't; I keep all sigs turned off.
As someone whose married couples usually come straight out of CAS, I'm not interested in this pack's gameplay features, but may still buy it for the world. I'm not entirely convinced yet, Tartosa looks like a weird combination of Sulani and Brindleton Bay with some Oasis Springs architecture thrown into the mix, and I'm not sure I like that, but this impression is entirely based on the few screenshots and short clips we have so far. Hopefully we'll get to see more in tomorrow's livestream.
Good to know the world will be residential, but that's just what I was expecting anyway. In fact, I'm 95% sure that vacation-only worlds are a thing of the past now that we can put rental properties anywhere we want, and 60% sure that even Granite Falls and Selvadorada will eventually be changed into residential worlds filled with rentals by default.

Let's hope those 60% become true because I would love to have sims live in selvadora. With the possibility of placing rentals in every world, it certainly doesn't make sense to add vacation only worlds anymore. What is a vacation destination to one person can be home to another so in terms of including people from all over the world, it is great sims can choose where to live.
In the mean time, I am very happy that this new world will be residential. It is one of the main selling points of the pack for me.
I think people are far too focused on what it's "suppose to be" could be inspired by one country or it could be inspired by many! But it's suppose to be a fictional world for sims that in your imagination could be Spain or another planet.
They probably took inspiration from a few different places because I can think of several similar looking places in real life.🤔
For me though it's just going to be a fictional world in my mind like all of the other worlds.
Beautiful either way!❤

Hopefully they added chatting too.
That will be fine but I sure hope the ocean is swimmable as well.

It isn’t new, it’s been around since Island Living.

Great! Then not staged.

It's been confirmed to be a residential world. SimGuruNinja said so in a reply to someone on twitter (it's in one of these threads.)

Something wicked this way comes!
I don't use MCCC.

I asked simguru Ninja on Twitter and he said it is livable.
