Up until now, the swims have been pretty challenging. Either hard to find, freezing cold, scuppered by puking children, or completed on grey and miserable days. The May swim? Frankly, this made me fraudulent as it was very far removed from a challenge! We were blessed with beautiful blue skies as we headed down to the beach as early as we could. When we arrived, I just could not get over the colour of the sea. So blue! And with so few people about and a feeling of isolation, I decided that this was my first chance in the challenge for a sneaky skinny dip.
Oh how I loved this swim! Sea was not cold, gentle waves, beautiful blues. I totally fell in love with sea swimming all over again and was reminded of the reasons I wanted to keep swimming all year round. And I fell head over heels in love with Dorset. A world away from the muddy, brown water in my home town.
