Forth Naturists Daring Dawn Skinny Dip

Forth Naturists Daring Dawn Dip!

Have you ever wanted to swim naked in the sea at sunrise, wanted to skinny dip, but haven't had the nerve, love skinny dipping and want to take part in an unusual one, or just want to raise money for Marie Curie by doing something different?

Then you're welcome to join us at Forth Naturist's Daring Dawn Dip. It's on Sunday 3rd September, just as the sun comes up.

It’s a sponsored event in aid of Marie Curie Hospice. It’s at 0600, aiming to be in the water by 0620. That’s sunrise. Dawn is actually 40 minutes earlier!

The beach is in East Lothian, and is not an officially recognised beach for Naturism but the council are aware of, and supportive of the event. It’s 50 minutes drive from Edinburgh and the exact location will be emailed to participants about five days before the event.

The council have asked that we are all dressed again by 0730. For this reason, we are aiming to be in the sea just as the sun comes up, which has a certain je ne sais quoi!

There is adequate car parking, the venue is a 15 minute walk from the car park. There is an alternative flatter, but longer route if you require it. If so, please mention this to the organisers in advance.

There will be lifeguards present, and clothed representatives of Marie Curie to collect sponsor money and to make sure other beach users know the event is taking place.

Email us at gbsd@forthnaturists.co.uk putting “Beach” in the subject line, and we’ll send you further details and a printable sponsorship form for Marie Curie. Health and Safety dictates that we need to know if you intend to participate at least 10 days in advance.

We are also hoping to run an event in the evening at our usual swim venue, but details of that haven’t been finalised yet. If you would be interested in that, put “pool” in the subject line, or both if you want to do both!

This event is part of the "Great British Skinny Dip" which runs throughout the month of September 2017. Please refer to the GBSD web site for background information as well as details of other events in this season. Alternatively, you may search for events using the tags "GBSD2017" and "Septembare".
