Welcome to our swim blog... it's all about swimming in the ocean, mostly in the La Jolla, California area. We're open-minded, open-water fans -- enjoying local marine creatures, fish, yellow tails, birds and even the occasional human swimming by... Just like to get BACK TO THE WATER, whenever and as often as we can!

Big surf
Checked out the Cove before meeting Ralph and Claudia at the Shores for a 3:00 swim. Saw Jimmy the lifeguard out with another guy in the thick of the surf waiting for the perfect body surfing wave. Along with them were big seals body surfing and frolicking in the surge. It looked pretty churned up and there was some good size surf coming in. The biggest wave rose up, breaking left, and Jimmy rolled over on his back and slid into the sweet spot and took it all the way in! It was fabulous!!!! As for the swim at the Shores, small surf, patchy viz, but beautiful weather and good company! We swam from south of the big tower to the blue bathrooms, then to the Marine Room and back. Some really COLD spots. On my way out of the water, ran into Ruth who was meeting Bill for a swim. Get it while you can!
