Kellie (kayak) and myself (swim) went down to Garrabost this evening, heading through the arch and over to the first beach. Conditions were decent and the tide just high enough to get through the arch. The inside of the island was like seaweed soup. Click here to view the YouTube Video

Cracking morning for a swim at Traigh Ghearadha (Garry Beach) in Tolsta with Kellie. It's been ages since we've both been swimming and what a stunning location to get back in again, we even tried out the plunge pool near one of the sea stacks. Happy wedding day to Clare and Jason over in Derry today 😊🎊🍻 Click here to view the YouTube Video Friday evening swim through the arch at Garrabost with Gary. Fantastic weather for it too... Click here to watch the YouTube Video Great to meet up with visiting friend Tall Col for a swim after work through the arch at Garrabost, which involved a bit of scrambling but we got a seat in the low tide hot tub. There were about a half dozen seals watching us swimming round the outside of the arch on the way back to the slipway.

Connor got his drone out for an aerial view of one of the bays.

There was plenty of sea life underwater to view along the way. Thanks to Margaret and Chris for joining us for a walk.

It was probably the calmest I've ever seen the sea at Garrabost though it certainly wasn't the warmest. The slipway was slippery with ice but I had my throw line as usual in the van, so we could tie it up and use that if needed. Thanks also to Connor for the drone footage which is another video from today. Click here to watch the YouTube Video Thanks to Connor for the drone footage of us swimming at Garrabost this afternoon. As you can see it's a stunning coastline and swimming through the wee sea stacks and the arch is just class. See if you can spot the seal splashing 😊 Click here to watch the YouTube Video Cracking morning for a swim through the garrabost arch.
