In the winter I really enjoy that cold feeling. Everything else in your life melts away . I’ve been going in most days for a good few years now and you still have to have such mental strength to get in when it’s really cold and dark , your head is saying don’t do it ! It really pushes you out of your comfort zone and once your out of the sea you feel fantastic !  

In the summer I love it for the exercise. And to really explore our beautiful coastline ,we are very lucky here in Torbay to have some wonderful rock formations , caves and so much sealife . We spot dolphins on many of our swims . Seals are a regular visitor to make you swim a bit quicker to get back to the shore ! 

My favourite swim spots in Torbay are , Meadfoot , Anstey’s Cove , Beacon Cove , Maidencombe and Elberry Cove .
