Stackpole Quay, Pembrokeshire - The April Swim

Daves Uncle John had been asking us for ages to come and visit, so it seemed sensible to combine a visit to the family with completing the April swim. So, at Johns recommendation, we headed down to Stackpole Quay, a lovely little harbour looked after by The National Trust. It was a rainy, grey day, but this seemed to make it easier to get in. I had a really lovely swim here, the current was minimal and waves small so I was able to explore the bay with little trouble, and swam for about half an hour. And at all times I could hear Ruby, and her increasingly familiar chant of "Muuu-meee! Muuuu-MEE!", cheering me on as I swam. I had the beach to myself for the duration of the swim, and just as I got out, some local kids came along and started throwing themselves off the jetty into the water a had only just got out from. Stackpole? I will be back!
