Giordail Beach Coastal Swim

Giordail Beach Coastal Swim - 12.10.2019

12/10/2019

A great morning for a coastal swim at one of my favourite beaches on Lewis, Giordail. Headed round the sea stacks and through the natural arch, then onto the tunnel for a swim through that. Plenty of wildlife on the go and also a warship (HMS Albion seemingly) heading into Broadbay as well as a chinook passing over. Duckman was saying 11.6 degrees.

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.
