I finally participated in weekly (more or less) winter bathing last year, and even if I stopped, it still was an interesting experience. And I wasn’t even paid.
The coldest was 2.5C water and -8C air, and it was painful. Anything over 6 is more or less manageable. And you get a “ohhh, the water is goood” perk for the summer. I mean, for days when water is not actually good, but you’ve had worse so you enjoy it:)
Even without it, you can survive 30 seconds in the biting cold easily.
Honestly seeing a new part of the sea every day could be fun.
Hmm, flat and wet today. Cool.
Wow, flat and wet again.
Flat and wet.
A little choppy and also wet.
Flat and wet again.
Is that land in the distance!?! Nope, floating bird.
Flat. Wet.
I could handle that for 30 seconds a day.
