Sea swimming

Attachment 2373

The pic doesn't do it justice!

Looks great... where were you?

Swam a couple of weekends ago in Dorset..beautiful, and as I'm normally used to swimming in arctic Welsh water, the south coast water seemed to be the temperature of bath water!

Think young TT missed that one. Vindication, perhaps, that Tom is not yet ready for the full on Xmas on the Fells experience?;)

:D I swam off a georgeous beach in Skye in July; it was just like the carribean in that the sea was crystal clear, stunningly aqua marine under a sunny sky with beautiful white sand below. The temperature was something else though and there were quite a few of those little see through (and harmless) jelly fish milling about.

Sounds lovely :)

It wasn't the jellies I was concerned about - although I wouldn't want to meet a huge stingy one such as we get down here from time to time! The weeds are much more scary; could get tangled up in those!!! :(

Seaton, Devon. It was cold enough to take my breath away!

Attachment 2379 Like these for example! As big and bigger than dinner plates.

I got stung by one in Cuba. A couple of tentacles got stuck under my watch strap. Stung a bit. :rolleyes:
