    Hi folks,

    Sorry if this is a repost, struggling to find any decent info


    I was wondering if there are any sea swimming groups or clubs around North Dublin that cater to beginners (I can swim, but only ever swam in a pool)

    Preferably around Malahide, Portmarnock or Donabate would be best, but anywhere in North Dublin would be fine


    Thanks in advance!

    It's probably too far away from you but Frosties in Skerries.

    Thanks, it's a bit out of the way but from Swords it's probably not much more time than Donabate. I'll definitely look into them

    Balscadden in Howth doesn't have a club that I'm aware of but there's normally a good few swimmers around at high tide on the weekends.

    Similarly, Dollymount the shelters. We also have a FB page called The bathing shelters Dollymount.

    Remember the shills only get paid when you react to them.
