New Year’s Day Swim at Culdaff Bay

What better way to see in the new year than stripping off and dashing into the freezing cold waters of the Atlantic! A well established tradition, the swim is a popular event which raises money for local charities.

Hundreds of people gathered for the annual event, which kicked off at 2.30pm. I’d estimate there must have been 80-100 brave souls who actually entered the water. Here are some photos of the madness.

Lovely day for a swim

Rearing to go…


Must be too cold for this guy…


But at least there’s a hot drink to warm you up!
