Hi there

I’m booked in to swim at the clinic this Sunday. Is it wetsuit temperature?
Is there somewhere to leave valuables?

Thanks
Elana

it’s a very personal choice really. Water temp is around 58-60 this weekend and that’s quite cold for some. If you aren’t acclimated to cold water or if you do triathlons and will wear one for the race, then yes, you should wear one on Saturday. But they aren’t required.

As for valuables – we leave things on the beach but there is always someone around to keep an eye on things.

Thanks for those questions. They were on my mind too. I’m looking forward to swimming Saturday and Sunday.

Do people generally come to the beach in their wetsuit, or are they typically put on right before the swim? I’m a total wetsuit noob and will likely want to wear one for the 7/20 clinic. Thanks!

Those who wear them usually put them on right before the swim. I do not recommend coming to the beach in a wetsuit – it’s going to be VERY hot this weekend and you risk getting heat stroke.
