Is endless summer swimming a dream come true?
Do you embrace the cold and celebrate the changing seasons, or would endless summer swimming be a dream come true? Simon Griffiths meets a swimming coach who lived in a perpetual summer for eight years.

Simon Griffiths
I created Outdoor Swimmer in 2011 (initially as H2Open Magazine) as an outlet for my passion for swimming outdoors. I've been a swimmer and outdoor swimmer for as long as I remember. Swimming has made a huge difference to my life and I want to share its joys and benefits with as many people as possible. I am also the author of Swim Wild & Free: A Practical Guide to Swimming Outdoors 365 a Year and I provide one-to-one support to swimmers through Swim Mentoring.
