Thursday 1st January 2026 – Great news, once again we are now looking to hold the New Year’s Day Swim 2026 at Whitesands Bay. Normal format; registration from 11:00 AM with the swim taking place at 12:00 PM. It will also be a great opportunity to see St Davids RNLI in action during their 1st exercise of the year. Please make sure you register at Porthmawr Surf Lifesaving Club.
Once the swim is over we are heading to the Farmers Arms for a bowl of hot Cawl, and some Live Music from Ross Gurney. After the music, Les has agreed to hold one of his infamous NYD Quizzes. All taking place in the Farmers, so get your thinking caps on and come and join us. Obviously our main objective is to raise money for local charities and other local causes.
Please remember the water is likely to be extremely cold in the winter months – please conduct your own dynamic risk assessment and take all precautions necessary to keep yourself safe.👏👌❄️😊 There is some great advice from the RNLI website under Cold Water Shock also if you are a first-timer to swimming in cold water there is plenty of advice to be found via the Blue Tits website -or watch this YouTube clip: As they say Don’t Be A Tit …… Be A Blue Tit
