Informal Safe Swimming Talks

We’ve designed an informal safety talk for beginner swimmers, new open water swimmers or anyone interested in safer swimming. We’ll pick a comfortable coffee shop and take you through the theory. This option is available through the winter and spring months. Simply get in touch to book. We’ll go through :

• planning your swim and looking at the conditions online. Go through the tides, tide sizes and types, wind direction and strength, swell…where to swim in which conditions

• we’ll then go through additional checks at the swim and what to look out for

• how to stay visible in the water and alert rescue services, if required

• general safe swimming practises

• worth bringing a pen and paper to take notes

The course is carried out by Tom, from Sea Swim Cornwall. Tom was a professional lifeguard for a total of 11 seasons, covering every beach in the Newquay/Restormel area, as well as a number of beaches in the Penwith area and Manly Beach, in Australia. He’s also been in charge of water safety for Sea Swim Cornwall for 8 years.

Course cost is £20 (includes a coffee) for a one-on-one, £35 for a 2-person group or £40 for a 3-person group.
