Well it is, technically, but "wild swimming" just seems to be something about making it new and edgy and cool as opposed to "swimming somewhere nice outdoors". And the examples they give are always somehow Nice and never about how all the local kids have cheap wetsuits and jump off the rocks in school holidays.
