Pink Caps Winter Solstice Swim
🌅🏊🏼‍♂️🏊‍♀️☕️🙂
Our regular swim will start early on Saturday 20 June 2026 to celebrate the shortest day of the year. Come & watch the winter sun rise from the poles with the cold water crew. Arrive @ 6:40am for a 7:00am start. Flashing bike light in your tow float is recommended so we don’t lose anyone in the dark. Experienced open water swimmers only for this one. Distances may vary depending on conditions & who shows up. Wetsuit also recommended for water temperature of 12C.

First winter swim for the cold water crew. Water temperature varied between 12.5 & 13C. Visibility 4/10 after rain during the week. Busy @ the cafe afterwards 🏊🏼‍♂️🏊‍♀️ ☕️🙂
