Steam, Splash, Repeat: A Perfect But Chilly Norwich Adventure
There’s something wonderfully rebellious (or crazy) about voluntarily getting into very cold water, especially when most sensible people are still warming their hands around a morning coffee and yet, that’s exactly how our latest adventure began - because nothing says good life choices quite like a river dip followed by a sauna session. Our day kicked off beside one of Norwich’s most iconic landmarks, Cow Tower. The sky was a threatening shade of grey and suggested drizzl

A Pool With A View
As someone who usually finds peace in the open water - whether it’s a broad, mill pond, or the sea - I’m always on the lookout for new swimming experiences. Recently, I swapped my usual natural settings for something a little more urban: the rooftop infinity pool at the Art’otel in London. I’d heard great things about it and I’m happy to report it didn’t disappoint! Art’otel, Battersea, London To access the pool, you first need to book an aerobics class. I’ll admit, it was

November — Embracing the Chill 🌬️🍂
November has arrived and with it comes one of the most magical transitions of the year. As you head down to the water, you might notice it before you even touch the surface: the soft crunch of fallen leaves underfoot, the woodsmoke in the air and that unmistakable bite in the breeze that signals the start of the cold-water season. For many of us this is when the true magic of wild swimming begins. The Beauty of Autumn Waters The trees are releasing their final bursts of col
