Hi
Apple Watch Series 2 models can be worn when shallow water swimming, including in salt water / the ocean.
After wearing Apple Watch Series 2 in the ocean, be sure to clean it by gently rinsing it with warm tap water. The watch and band should be dried using a soft, lint-free cloth.
Keep in mind that Apple also advises cleaning your Apple Watch if it comes into contact with any substances that may cause damage. Examples include contact with sand.
Note also that leather and stainless steel bands are not water resistant, so should not be worn in the ocean.
