THE BIG SWIM @ PARSLEY BEACH ( Jan 24)

Shake off the post-Christmas pudding, locate your swimmers and come join us for a joyful dip at beautiful Parsley Beach near Vaucluse. This has been moved to Saturday January 24.

It is a relaxed, friendly swim with good people, good water, and good times.

We will meet outside the Kiosk at the Beach end and from there walk to further down to the Beach where we will enjoy a great swim in very calm, enclosed harbor waters. It is an ideal place for swimmers with varying degrees of ability from those beginning to others more advanced.

This bay is sheltered within a Shark-proof net so it is the ideal swimming venue for those who enjoy taking a dip in calm and shallow waters.

The enclosure provides an approximate swimming area 150m long and 95m wide and is subject to tidal variations.

There is a unique Suspension Bridge above the pool which offers visitors the opportunity to take in the scenic views before or after a swim while allowing visitors to explore more of the area.

Afterwards we will enjoy a coffee together before heading home.

I look forward to seeing you all on Saturday January 24
