Ocean Swim, Thursday, May 19th HB Tower 9 (City Beach) at 7:30 am

You’re invited to our ocean swim: meet at (Huntington Beach City) Tower 9 off PCH & Huntington Street at 7:30am. In the water by 7:40am. Usually done by 8:15, depending on length of swim.

Conditions, good news: : waves 3-5 feet, SUNNY.

Bad news: water most recently was ~56 F, moderate winds! Dress warmly and expect some chop.

If you’re new: You can bring fins. Well, you can bring fins regardless. They’ll give you the propulsion and confidence to swim through the waves.

We can escort you through the waves if you need help.

Recently, we’ve been swimming ~1,500 yards. If there are enough swimmers, we can break into 2 groups, with one swimming ~1,500 yards and the other 2,000-2,500 yards.

Water might feel a little cold to the uninitiated. So, pack a hot beverage to drink immediately upon exiting the water (not your car). This is more important than drying off. But, definitely dry off once you’ve taken in some hot fluids. 

We look forward to seeing you there!

Tower Swim parallel to shore rather than a Buoy Swim.
