PLEASE BE AWARE: this group is exclusively for open water swimming in the sea. Before joining any swim, you MUST read and understand all the points below. Safety and personal responsibility are our priorities.

1. RESPONSIBILITY:
By joining, you acknowledge that you swim entirely AT YOUR OWN RISK. Each participant is solely RESPONSIBLE for their own safety and wellbeing. This is an informal group of amateur sea swimmers — there is no lifeguard, coach, or medical assistance provided.

2. DISTANCE & CONDITIONS:
We usually swim 200–400 metres away from the shore, in deep water. To join, you must already know how to swim confidently — being used to swimming regularly in a pool and able to cover at least 1000 metres. This is not a swimming school. Remember: you swim entirely AT YOUR OWN RISK.

The route goes parallel to the beach, about 600m forth and back (approx. 1200 meters in total). Slower swimmers will always be accompanied by an experienced member of the group, and no one will be left alone.

If at any time you feel unwell, dizzy, tired, or decide to leave the water, you MUST inform someone from the group before exiting. For safety reasons, never leave the water alone or without having told another swimmer.

3. SWIM BUOY:
Most of us use a SWIM BUOY, which increases visibility and allows us to keep small essentials dry while swimming. For safety reasons, newcomers should always swim with a buoy. If you don’t have one, please mention it in the comments so that one of the regular members may bring an extra buoy if available (subject to availability).

4. MEETING TIME:
The meeting time varies throughout the year depending on sunrise. We usually gather a bit earlier to enter the water and watch the sunrise from the sea.
PLEASE, BE PUNCTUAL so the group is not delayed.

5. MEETING POINT:
We meet at the parking area right in front of “McDonald’s”, at the same level as the Red Cross building (Passeig Marítim de la Nova Icària, 38, 08005 Barcelona, near the restaurant L’Scamarla). For safety reasons, if you arrive late, do not enter the water alone.

6. BELONGINGS:
There are no lockers available. Sometimes one of us comes by car and can keep a few belongings, but this is entirely at your own risk. The car owners do NOT take any responsibility in case the vehicle is broken into and items are stolen. We recommend not bringing valuables — only the absolutely necessary. If you must bring important items, the safest option is to carry them in a swim buoy.

7. EQUIPMENT:
We suggest bringing GOOGLES, a SWIMMING CAP, and — if you have one — a neoprene wetsuit (although it’s also possible to swim without).

8. JELLYFISH:
Remember that we are swimming in their home. Encounters are possible at any time of the year. Always stay alert, and if you see jellyfish, inform the rest of the group immediately so everyone can avoid them.
