I personally don't have a tattoo - yet - but a friend of mine recently got one and he told me that he was supposed to keep it as dry as possible. We went swimming a little while after he got it, and he told us that he needed to stay out of the water for around two weeks. I think he mentioned it was to prevent infections from the lake water. I think showers would be okay as long as you dried it off quickly, but a lake I would say no. Pools would be chancey, because I don't think chlorine would be too good for it.
