About the club

We swim the marked loop at Emmarentia Dam most mornings before work, and longer on weekends. Wetsuits welcome in winter, when the water drops near ten degrees and nobody judges you for it. There is always a spotter on the bank and nobody swims alone. Newcomers do the short buoy line first while someone stays alongside.
