With the recent leak of a potential tropical themed expansion coming in June. I just want to point out that we will not be getting an immersive gaming experience similar to what we got in Sims 3 Island Paradise if this expansion ever came out to the game.

If you were wondering whether or not the oceans in existing worlds can be made routable for Sims to swim in, it’s “unlikely”. SimGuruDaniel took to Twitter yesterday to state that they would most likely have to create new terrain/worlds for that specific purpose.

If making current ocean terrain routable is not something that can be done, then it’s very likely our Sims will only be able to swim in the ocean in specially made worlds.

I'm not surprised. Those oceans weren't built for swimming and the terrain and water is much different than 3. - WIRED
The beaches, lakes, rivers, etc, where not built for swimming in The Sims 3 until they designed them to be. It's not they pushed a button to make them swimmable, they had to create it. - GREG
Exactly, however I'm not going to lie, I wish they could for worlds like Windenburg. Would of been amazing, maybe they'll remake it or add an extended version to them so we can... If it's possible xD - ♥BeautiSimmer♥
Hopefully we'll get a couple of new worlds with oceans our sims can swim in. - CATLOVERPLAYER
