If you are heading to France for your holidays please don’t forget that a lot of French swimming pools insist that male swimmers where speedo style swimming trunks. So if you have only packed your board shorts or longer trunks beware that you might be banned from the pool by the lifeguard.
For us reserved English men, the wearing of speedos are often viewed with a sense of fear, after all there are very few people who carry the look off. But we can say from personal experience, check out the Happy Camper, that without a pair you can be prevented from swimming so it is always worth taking them with you.
