Are u ready for Open Water 2026 coached Open Water Sessions?
Please note what equipment is Compulsory and what equipment is not compulsory but recommended.
☆ Another item i would recommend are ear plugs specifically ones that still allow you to hear instructions while in the sea. For obvious reasons we dont recommend the others that leave you completely hard of hearing. Call into to get fitted for these.
☆ Dry Ear Spray is an amazing product that helps gets rid of stubnorn water in ear after swimming. It also helps refuce infection from being in water. I absolutely swear by this product and have been uaing it for years. It can be purchased in most pharmacies but after doing a lot of research it is available in
at the lowest price of €12.95. Nicholsons pharmacy is in town opposite Bank of Ireland and next to Matt Lyons shop. Pop in and .nicholson.7 or any of her staff who will be more than happy to advice you.
