No matter when you swim, there is someone from whom you can find out some intel about what you want to know – sea temperature – today a hot 23.9, the swell, what marine life has been seen, any stingers and coming events of interest. This morning, the key question on everyone’s lips was about blue bottles because of the north/north east angle of the wind. How many blue bottles are there? How many are in production out on the sea somewhere such that only a north east wind brings them? Good to ponder while having a swim. Today the water was a bit messy with strong currents in different directions at the shore and biggish waves beyond the point. The visibility was not very good. But the swim was still great to do
Here is Anne with Martin. During Covid when BB is not swimming a a group, she swims when suits her and with whoever is swimming at the same time. That is agile swimming

Out on the waves it was hard to see any one to photograph as the waves could easily conceal that nearby there was a person. I found these nice people to photograph while lurking out there.

No. but there were sea lice. The situation may change later because of the wind direction
