What's your favourite swim spot and why?

Too many in Guernsey to choose from - but depending on conditions Bordeaux for sunrise, Gouffre for caves, Horseshoe for seal spotting, Rocquaine for snorkeling on low tide, Bathing pools on a rough wintery day, Chouet for a summer sun set with a high tide, Venus Pool on Lihou, Herm and the list goes on - very spoilt 😊🧡

Do you have any regular swims that people can come along and join you?

Every Sunday morning without fail group swim at 09.30am - venue dependent on tides a weather following by breakfast nearby 🍳🥓☕️

Do you have any particular post swim rituals? Is it always cake? Do you prefer a fire?

A tipple of Baileys and cake !!!! Oh and we like smores over a fire 🔥 😋

Tell us about a really memorable occasion for your flock

Here are some quotes from my Flock 💙

The Guernsey one on Ladies Bay. Eating beanjar and gache on the beach afterwards - Gary

The first swim down at the Gouffre. It was a magical swim into the caves and such a pretty and peaceful spot - Janine

The high tide swim off the Pembroke slab for Marina's birthday, tide was so high we had to leave our bags the other side of the wall - Yvonne

Difficult I loved the camaraderie at the guernsey swim , loved the gouffre and herm but gotta be jumping off Pembroke on the 10m tide xx Sarah

The swim behind Fort Grey last summer. The tide was so far out and it was a hot, still afternoon and there were just four of us. It felt like we were part of the natural habitat as we couldn’t see or hear the traffic or even another human being - absolutely magical! Linda

Ooo my first ever jump in at the age of 61 at TTs birthday swim! Also my first ever try at body boarding!! Angela

Xena and I had a chat & we loved the fancy dress swim at Bordeaux for the Summer Bingo. Not sure how many folks we frightened/made laugh! 😹. But soooo many more than that too! Anna & Xena
