In order for us to operate we unfortunately have to be very strict with implementing the no refund and no exchange policy. We are a small social enterprise team working with the best of intentions to keep our prices affordable whilst paying forward profits to fund swim kit, lessons, transport and the like, for people who have the least access to swimming lessons but would benefit the most from swimming and being part of the sea swimming community.
Subsidised places are available on all courses and sessions. Please get in touch via email info@seabirdsltd.com
The whole session is outdoors onto the beach so appropriate clothing should be worn. We cannot over emphasis how cold you will get sitting still on the beach for 90minutes. Even if the sun is shining! If you think you have enough layers, you haven't - add more!
Bring a;
MANDATORY swimsuit, a brightly coloured swim hat, beach shoes (old trainers will do), a towel, woolly hat, winter coat and lots of warm clothes and layers for afterwards.
OPTIONAL goggles, a wetsuit , neoprene gloves and accessories of your choice.
We cannot over emphasise the need for warm layers as we are outdoors and in the sea!
There is on street parting locally.
There are public toilets near by and a cafe
