The 12 Bays of Christmas


Date of Event: 1 - 31 Dec 2024


Our fun and festive swimming challenge

Following the successful 30 Bays in 30 Days event this summer, we're encouraging islanders to embrace the winter weather and visit 12 different bays throughout December.

Between 1 and 31 December, participants must take a bracing dip in each of the festively named bays:

  • Bonne silent Nuit
  • Bauble-y- Bay
  • St Cathereindeers bay
  • Yule lo(n)g Beach
  • La Rocque-ing around the Christmas Tree
  • Ever-Green Island
  • St Ho-Ho-Ho-bins Bay
  • Port-let it Snow
  • Jingle all the Ouaisne
  • St Brr-lade’s Bay
  • Le Sleigh
  • L’Elf-tacq

Registration fees:
£12 for adults
£5 for children

Safety of swimmers is paramount so only those who are medically fit should consider taking part. Participants will also receive tips and information about how to stay safe during and after a cold water swim and wearing a wetsuit will be optional. The emphasis is also for people to take part within their own limitations so there is no target time, distance, or number of strokes to swim.

This event is kindly sponsored by CSC.
