Over 65 Bold & Beautiful swimmers.
A bonus day sees us enjoy last day of summer swimming today, we were joined by our cycling swimmers, Ron and David as featured in our first photo. We had the company of lots of dusky whalers, eagle rays, groupers and loads of fish.
Gaetan has kindly shared the video of his early swim with Michel and the fish, check it out here, it’s lovely as always.
7 swimmers continued on to enjoy a second lap, apologies for the water on the lens blurring it a little.
A big congratulations to Neil who hung in there as the leader of our Pacific Challenge for the whole of summer, only just though, as Michael is close enough to be drafting him now 😉
Look forward to seeing you at our sponsored nibbles tonight from 6.30pm at Manly Wine.
And… tomorrow morning for the first day of Autumn swimming 🙂

Lovely calm conditions today – well worth an enjoyable second lap.

I’ve just added a video to the blog from Gaetan of some of the marine life this morning, it’s well worth a look.
You can see King Fish chasing the yellow tail, very impressive Gaetan I never manage to capture them.

Yes it was very strange – the yellow tail seemed to be schooling around us maybe hoping the Kingfish would be scared of us.

Yes, fantastic video as usual Gaetan, Monsieur National Geographic 🙂
Just wondering about the last creature, is it not a Port Jackson shark?

just the tail of a fiddler ray, very similar colors you are right. I was quite surprised to see that many fiddler rays in the little time we spent in there, we saw 4! Really hard to take photos or movies as it’s so dark without the sun!
