16/01/2011 – Penguin Swim

January 16, 201110

Over 48 Bold & Beautiful swimmers.

Great news, we were back to our normal routine this morning – in the ocean, swimming from Manly to Shelly Beach and back. Great swim, although a little choppy especially compared to the flat calm waters of the Harbour.

We were accompanied by a penguin which is very special. We also saw our regular Dusky Whalers and Wobbegongs 🙂

The Dolphins swam around to the point whilst we were at coffee.

Thanks heaps to Michel and Gaetan for looking after B&B last week !

Water Temperature 21.1 degrees.
Sunrise 6.00am.
Sunset 8.09pm.
High Tide: 6.34am.
Low Tide: 1.08pm.

    Roberto! Have a look at the offshore temperature chart. It went from 20c to 24.7c today. Probably you won’t need that wetsuit after all. We may be in the harbour anyway as the swell will be bigger than to day and full easterly.

    What a thoughtful penguin to welcome us back to the ocean. Today’s swim was a good way to unwind after the big one yesterday.

    Lovely swim today, congratulations to all those who swam the 10kms yesterday. Great to see some of those swimmers back today. Hey Sandy you’re a truly inspirational swimmer, have a sensational time in Whistler with Miss Molly. Stay warm !!! Looking forward to some pink cap photos.
