Christmas Gifts for Outdoor Swimmers
There is not long to go until the big day, so we thought we'd help you out with a some great gift ideas for wild swimmers. We have put together some gift inspiration for outdoor swimmers from our shop and a couple of our favourite small businesses.
Look like a pudding in a fabulous Christmas Pudding silicone swim hat from Cool Bathing.
We have recently added these sip lid flasks from Hydro Flask to the shop and they are proving very popular. They keep your drink so hot that it is worth remembering to add a little cool water before you take it on your swim. They are available in a huge range of colours.
Brilliant Bobble Hats
This bright bobble hat is handknitted in Nepal using 100% wool. The cosy inner fleece lining is made using recycled plastic bottles.
Newly published Art of Wild Swimming England and Wales and Art of Wild Swimming Scotland are perfect books for wild swimmers. The books include experienced outdoor swimmers recommended swim locations and top tips. We love the emphasis on sustainability and responsible swimming in the books.
Changing in Style
Available in a new colour for December 2021 the Fourth Element Storm Poncho is our favourite sustainably made weather proof changing robe.
Brighten up any outdoor swimmers' day with this striped towelling poncho. Made with organic cotton and recycled polyester.
Time for a Swim?
Never miss a full moon dip again or check the tide with this moon and tide clock made with recycled paper waste.
Jewellery for Sea Lovers
Handmade in the UK, these dainty starfish are available in solid silver or gold plate.
Leave no trace
Litter picking is a great way to warm up after a swim. How about giving a litter picking kit with a litter picker and ocean debris bag?
Be Seen
Tow floats are recommended when you are swimming outdoors to increase the swimmer's visibility. We stock a range of Puffin tow floats that are made using recycled materials.
Safer Sea Swimming
What about booking a Safer Sea Swimming Online Course? Run by H2O Training and Immerse Hebrides, the course provides 4 x one hour online sessions to help develop your knowledge on sea swimming. The next course starts in January.
