This morning conditions were just perfect, flat, clearer, dusky’s to see and low tide which meant it was nearly a walk to the point. A little bit of rain had us all ducking for cover – don’t want to get wet until we need to. But the rain didn’t bother this trio who were keen...

Lots of Duskies again today filling swimmers with awe as they came out of the 21 degree ocean… Fiona T reported seeing around 15! After Dr Amy’s shark talk last night we should be feeling a lot more confident about sharing the water with these creatures. She was specifically talking about Bull Sharks but her...

Good morning! Another terrific Tuesday was on the cards today with the arrival of lighter mornings, warmish waters still, perfect weather and lovely clean conditions- seems to be a tuesday tradition!  The morning began with chats at Manly pre swim, making us that little bit late as we swam over to Shelly.  We all met...

Today Babewatch is holding their annual...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MEGAN LISA AND PAULA!!!!!   What a beautiful but dark start to a special birthday swim for our 3 birthday people. I am looking forward to the daylight savings change on Sunday!! It was very nice today but what are those early swimmers doing swimming in pitch black? A little bit of cloud...

After my first swim in October 2013 I met a bunch of swimmers and  I thought “This is a swim group who happen to get on really well.” And it took a while to realise it’s a group of people who get on really well that happen to swim. Dare I say there is a...

Just as the sun completes its morning ritual of bursting into the sky, so too do we complete ours which set us up for the day. Whether that be getting out on the same side of the bed each morning, (unless you’ve had a rough night’s sleep and find yourself upside down), exercise first thing...

Morning all! Another dark sky greeted us at Manly today, with the clouds threatening rain, but we were spared the gloomy weather and had  another glorious swim despite the poor visibility. Jenny led the yoga class as the regular teacher wasn’t around. She’s studying to be a yoga teacher and is a personal trainer so...
