Two-Person Pool Party

"I had sex in a public pool when I was 22."

— Dana Delany

Sex in a pool. Why is it common enough to warrant a trope? Perhaps it's our distant amphibian past. Perhaps it's because you don't get cold. Perhaps water is an aphrodisiac. Perhaps the amount of glistening skin left exposed by bathing suits is a turn-on. Perhaps it's because there's no clean-up. Whatever, sometimes two people get into a swimming pool or something akin to it, and take part in what many public pools describe as "heavy petting". It also can be alternatively done in a bathtub or hot tub.

Sometimes goes hand in hand with Underwater Kiss. In a bathtub or jacuzzi, there may be Censor Suds (or Censor Steam in a hot tub) to keep the film from getting an R rating. Afterwards, one or both characters may do Sexy Surfacing Shot—that is, slowly get out as the camera lovingly focuses on them in a fanservice shot.

Similar to Shower of Love, where the aquatic lovemaking is done in a shower rather than a tub. Can result from a positive outcome of Outdoor Bath Peeping. Not to be confused with Baths Are Fun, which presents the bathing itself as fun and enjoyable.

Her sister Pola would later have her own animated bikini skin released in a later update, this time at the beach, where the Commander inaudibly tells her that Zara taught him how to swim in a Call-Back, and Pola's jealous facial expressions make it clear she at least suspects the Commander and Zara really did make love in the pool.

Rin yells that she's never been so insulted by his shamelessness... but notably, she does not cancel the plan, just forbids him from inviting anyone else.
• Barely averted in Katawa Shoujo. Hisao and Lilly fondle each other in the bathtub, but the actual sex happens on the floor and right next to said tub.
• The protagonist and title character of Melody go skinny dipping late at night in their hotel pool after Melody plays a concert. Things heat up really fast.
