    Description

    *If the date below is not showing up green on my booking calendar and you would like this day please contact me.*


    If you haven’t swum in open/cold water before or completely new to Sandy Toed Sea Swimmers please book onto my Introduction to open water swimming/brand new session.


    Only on your first booking a questionnaire & disclaimer will need to be completed & signed. If there are any amendments from previous sessions, Sandy Toed Sea Swimmers must be notified. If you are including additional swimmers to your booking, please 'invite' them via your confirmation email, this will send them the relevant forms to be completed beforehand.


    Welcome to Sandy Toed Sea Swimmers, my novice sessions are available for all abilities who are 18+ and suitable for those who may be strong and confident in a swimming pool but are new to open water. Sessions are upto 45 minutes and include a safety briefing and tips to help you enjoy your swim to the fullest.

    As well as sharing my open water passion with you, my sessions will give you the skills, knowledge, and confidence to begin or continue with your own open water journey.


    All sessions will be held at Felpham except for Sundays, these will be at Bognor East.



    PLEASE NOTE, due to circumstances beyond my control I may have to change the meeting place and time on the day, please check here before your session.
