Started in 2002 by few swimmers desperate to get out the pool into the sea.
We used to alternate between Fish Hoek and Camps Bay.
In 2004 two factors led the migration from Fish Hoek to Camps Bay:
Since than, we meet every Sunday [regardless of weather] in Camps Bay. Across the road from Caprice Cafe.
9:00am we get into the water and swim. Long, short, bob, anything goes. We always get wet!
Our rules:

In 2004 two factors led the migration from Fish Hoek to Camps Bay:
- Great White Sharks joined the swimming group
- The Hot Chocolate wasn't up to our standards [main reason]

Our rules:
- DONT Drown
- Stay together, find a buddy, find a group
- Stay shallow, safer. If you go deep, don't drag others with you. Be safe.
- Always look after the other swimmers in the group - we all watch out for each other.
- If you are a faster swimmer and swim in the front - others will follow you - look after their safety, or don't lead.
- Trouble? raise your arm, someone will help you. Or, get out, and tell someone you are safe.
- Make sure you join us for a Hot Choc and a Choc flake - Else, you swam for nothing!
- Bring friends, family, swim in whatever you desire - everyone is welcome.
- Keep the beach clean.
- BE SAFE!
- DON'T BE STUPID!
- LOOK AFTER THE OTHERS!
- PAY FOR YOUR HOT CHOC!
