Bruce introduced the ceremony , two readings from Blake and Flip who did so well, plus the special performance of the last post on the bugle. A nice big crowd gathered on the beach.

As previously noted, Summer is on leave for the next little while, en route to the Northern Hemisphere, leaving us to enjoy crisper mornings and snuggly attire. Hoodies, jeans and trackies are on show, soon to be followed no doubt by the thermal footwear. Ian, Jane, Melise and Alison showing off their winter couture and...

The Ocean Season Shift

What a couple of weeks it’s been. Across Sydney’s coastline, the ocean has been buzzing with energy, courage, and community. Swim events have been rolling through one after another, bringing people together to dive in, challenge themselves, and be part of something bigger.

This is Muriwai Beach, one of...

Wednesday 14/4/2026 The Great Manly Reef

  Our swim was just simply the best this morning! Everyone was coming out of the water with the hugest smiles. It was so clear, so calm and so much to see! I saw a Turtle, Octopus, Cuttlefish, Dusky Whalers, Wobbegong, Eagle Rays and Fiddlers, Squid and Groper… but I have been lucky enough to...

Best swim.

Today was one of those days, the bay delivered in all different ways. Temperature was warm at 22.4 degrees, surf was up with a shallow sandbank at the beach. Lots of people coming and going, and loads of marine life in the bay too. I had a dusky under my face at Shelly but missed...
