Spring into the season

Care is still needed for spring swimming as the water is still cold and the weather can be fickle at this time of year

Swimming into spring from winter dips can be a welcome relief. You need a little less kit, you can take a little extra time after you get out of the water and there is a chance of warming sun on your back as you swim.
