Question

Hello!

I would be glad to know whether it is permitted to swim in a pool or in the sea on Rosh Hashanah?

Many thanks!!

Answer

Hello,

One should not enter a pool or the sea on Rosh Hashanah - see the attached link for sources, since it's like Shabbat, and there is no difference between Shabbat and Yom Tov in this regard.

With blessings,

Hillel Meirs
