The last answer was right it's swimming in lakes, reservoirs, the sea, out in the open air but not in a pool. In the UK we call swimming at the pool during sessions that anyone can go public sessions.

You will have to sight when swimming open water, so basically bring your head above water every few strokes and train as if it were a 1000 yard swim.

I thought you were asking something different, then I saw your details.
My YMCA uses the term "free swim" or "open swim", meaning the pool is available for general splish-splash - no lessons, no swim lanes. People seem to have different terms, though, and invariably the schedule is misinterpreted.
Your best bet is to just call your Y and ask them when they have whatever swim activity you're looking for.

Your definition is good but to me it means swimming in water other than a pool, like in the ocean or a lake or a river. But your definition could be right too.

In some cases it's like a near death experience.
