Perfect morning for some open water swim coaching at Pt Chev!
As a coach I like Pt Chevalier beach in Auckland as it's normally nice and sheltered from the elements. At high tide it has a nice shallow feel for beginners to gain confidence. It's also a short beach so you can swim laps and practice sighting the entire time.
A great place to practice those open water skills!
The only caveat is that I would recommend swimming there within 1 hour either side of high tide. As it quickly becomes too shallow to swim!
Just remember to check swimsafe.org.nz before heading out.
