Lumpy 4 mile swim across the Braighe and back to Holm. Waves were taller than my high eblow at some points. Duckman was saying it was a balmy braighe at 8 degrees average, though my feet were like blocks of ice getting out and I had to slacken my laces

New Years Day dip to raise money for Dementia. Gress Beach, Isle of Lewis. Duckman says 6.5 degrees average. Great turn out for this fund raising event.

    Thanks for visiting my blog!

    I've been a swimmer all my life and over the last several years I've done many challenging open water swims for charity all around our Islands which include the Sound of Barra & the Sound of Harris and both the Little & the Big Minch Channels to name a few.

    Having a real passion for open water swimming, I spend a lot of my spare time looking for and discovering amazing new swim spots around the Islands.
     
    I set up The Hebridean Sea Swimmers group in 2011 for all swimmers that live in or visit The Hebrides and it now has over 1000 members. I regularly meet up with visiting swimmers as I love to freely show off our Islands stunning swim locations.

    SwimCamping and SwimHiking are my new adventures and having such an amazing playground on my doorstep is fantastic, double bagging my kit into the Lomo waterproof rucksack and swimming to an island for an overnight stay or longer is just the best.

    Feel free to get in touch via the contact forms at the top of the page.​
