Description:

We're planning on swimming from Acadia Beach to Tower Beach. It's about 1.5km in length.

Wednesday's forecast should be partly cloudy with light winds 2 to 3 knots from NE, so hopefully it's glassy and flat.

Water temp is a cool 9C. 

I usually bring:

  • 5/6mm winter surfing wetsuit with a hood.
  • 3mm wetsuit gloves (might bring the 7mm mitts)
  • 5mm wetsuit booties
  • Fins
  • Goggles or Mask

Meet here (first picnic table on the right) at 8AM, email me ([email protected]) or signal at 202-258-3312 (USA number) if you are coming.
