Nov is possibly the easiest month to get in as water won't have dropped so much.
March 21 - 6c
Nov 21 - 10.4c to 9c Dec 21 - 6.1c to 4.7c Jan 22 - 9.8c to 3.8c (9.8c not usual)
Feb usually 5c - 6c ish.
Obvs temps vary depending on the body of water you're swimming in.

Gotta love Mr Fetch.
The water was 3.4 degrees on my last swim. There was a heavy frost and ice in muddy puddles that lined the lake.

That’s how I felt on Saturday too. Sea swim planned for this weekend though socks at least May be in order as I really struggled with dead feet!

I have a friend who swims daily in the sea and in winter wears neoprene boots over her ankles, gloves over her wrists and a woolly hat. Apparently, that is enough...
