The Open Water fitness and skills group has now started for 2026. We generally run it on a Tuesday night but if the weather is poor we'll select another night so follow my Facebook page for updates on Novice and Intermediate sessions or request to join the WhatsApp group.
The sessions are aimed at those who are looking to improve their swimming fitness coupled with some stroke and open water skills as well as familiarisation of swimming as a group . So whether you just want to improve your confidence in sea swimming or are training for an event or swim challenge this is good opportunity to train within a coached, lifeguarded group. This session is around 45 minutes (possibly slightly less in early season) and a specific buoyed course will be laid. It is mixed ability but not a beginners group or for elite swimmers either. To attend these sessions it would be beneficial if swimmers could manage around 200 metres continuous front crawl without a break.
