THE WIND CAN CHANGE EVERYTHING, WHY DOES IT MATTER LOOKING AT WIND ON THE FORECAST?

When we choose a venue for a swim, we’re not just looking at the sunshinea and swell. A big part of checking forecasts is looking at where the wind is coming from, how strong it is, and what that means for the water.

Wind can create:
🌊 Chop and waves
💨 Tougher swimming conditions
🧭 Changes to the best route
🌬️ More exposure and less shelter
🏊‍♀️ A very different experience for swimmers

The same beach can be calm and sheltered one day — and completely different the next.

That’s why it's important to always look at the forecast, wind direction, tide and conditions before deciding where to swim. The best venue isn’t always the one with the best view....get to know your regular swim spots, and which wind make a safe swim!
