Do I need to be a strong swimmer?

The Atlantic is fresh, but our 5mm winter wetsuits, boots and gloves keep you warm from March to November

We check conditions every morning. If a lesson can't go ahead safely, we move you to another slot or refund in full

Swimwear to wear under the wetsuit, a towel, a warm layer for afterwards and a bottle of water. We provide everything else
