surely some peole loved to swim then. And there was no lycra or spandex or synthetic materials. No wetsuits for chilly days, not even any surfboards to hang 10 on. What did they wear? And since they were probably biblically modest, they probably were dressed from head to toe. What? A bear fur? Donkey fur? They had to wear something modest, right?

I imagine the same thing that women in Iraq or Iran wear. I don't see the setting being much different.

I actually know this. The Romans invented the Bikini. Dont know what the guys wore, probably nothing.

They wore this: http://www.modest-swimwear.net/
..but made of sheepskin.
Seriously though I believe that if they went swimming (which wasn't as much of a recreation back then) they'd either be fully clothed or completely naked.

I would imagine that they stripped down to just the inner garment (tunic) and went it the water.
