Bude Sea Pool Wellbeing Swims

22/09/2026

As we approach the winter season it is time to start honing your pre and post swim routines.
There are lots of different ways to change after swimming and you will find the way that works for you. The key is to do it quickly as your core continues to cool for 30 minutes after you come out of the water. I will post a few different videos this week to give you examples. This is the first one from Sian, founder of the Bluetits.

I realise that finding the links to both the regular wellbeing swims (typically last Sunday of the month) and the Newbies swims (middle of month) has not been as clear so here is a reminder.
Remember the Newbies group is ONLY for those of you who have never swam the winter. Here is the link

The regular group is for everyone. Here is the link https://events.more-human.co.uk/event/1782820362754x197341499263549440
Both are free but Booking is essential.

A BIG BEGGING POST! Is there any lovely person out there coming ti@the wellbeing swim tomorrow who would be able to bake cake. The lovely Alison Emily who usually bakes for us is away and I know homemade is so much better than my bought options. I would be very grateful ###

REMINDER - regular wellbeing swim is this Sunday (a week earlier due to Channel Challenge in the last Sunday of the month) 9am. There are spaces left and I’ll see you there. Xx

People are always asking what equipment is needed for cold water swimming and the answer is nothing special. A swimsuit and a towel and loose warm layers for after your dip. And if you’re swimming in the sea - a tow float is highly recommended. Everything else is optional and only you know what will be useful for you as you progress into colder water. However here is a little guide to essentials and optionals. I will be talking more about this with my newbies group this coming Sunday but please feel free to ask any questions!! Xx

The cold water dipping feeling ….
There are still spaces on the Newbies swim this coming Sunday (for dippers who have never swam a winter or are new to the whole cold dipping thing) if you want to come along. Places are free but must be booked. https://events.more-human.co.uk/event/1782820454967x948746785912520700

Look at this gorgeous lot of dippers. Glad the sun showed itself eventually but you were all fabulously enthusiastic and jolly. We missed Alison Emily but thank you for ensuring we still had delicious cake to reward ourselves. Remember Wellbeing dips are the last Sunday of every month and Newbies (heading towards their first winter) are middle of each month.
