When did you last have a swim in the ocean and which beach?

It has been so long, I don't even remember when I last swam in the ocean.

Probably when I was last on a cruise, 3 years ago and it was on one of those lovely islands on a overseas cruise from Sydney. The water there has no waves and is so blue and beautiful.

I do not swim in the sea,In fact I cannot swim at all,having nearly drowned as a small child in the ocean and never having gotten over the fear!! I do,however enjoy beach-combing and finding nature's little treasures to use in craft projects.And I actually love to watch the surf from a safe distance,especially on a rainy day!
Living up near the great barrier reef though,I have not done this for over 30 years!!

I can't swim, (not more than a couple of strokes anyway) so I stay clear of the ocean. I do like walking along the beach on a winter's day or looking into rock pools at the wonderful sea creatures there.

Wow! Thanks so much for asking this question, it made me realise it has been far, far too long!. Mmm now where is that bathing suit?

shelley -it has probably shrunk by now from lack of use!!!

Actually swimming, wow, too long ago to remember! Probably on honeymoon in Morocco in 2005, which would be the Atlantic Ocean at a guess.
I have paddled in the North Sea at the Tynemouth beach near us here in England. It was October and freezing, so no hope of anything more than my wellies going in!!

Redleaf, it's a city beach in Sydney. Probably a few months ago!

December - a beach called Little Beach

Gettine dejevu about this question...thought I had answered it but apparently not!
I hadn't been for a swim in the ocean for a couple of years and funnily enough...I went twice last week, once with a friend and once on my own, before the seabreeze comes in from 8.30-11.30 it is beautiful at Port Beach, I floated on the gentle swell.....and weather perfect for it now..hummm

Some time ago, at Tallebudgera Creek, Gold Coast.
I do enjoy ocean swimming, as have done it from a kid. Holds no fears for me at all! Salt water's good for you!

i use to attend the beach quite often but it has been a while now since i found a new hobby

Umm, that was certainly a while ago! Probably when I stayed on Gili Air for 3/4 days, off Longbok, in Jan 1995.

We were on a Sydney return south pacific cruise & I know we did swim on Bora Bora & 2 out of the 4 Hawaiian islands we visited, so I can't remember which beach I swam at last, during the cruise.

As a kid growing up about 4-5 days a week.We lived at Coogee for some time in Sydney.The beach was my absolute.
Taught myself to swim by watching others...I have not been in now for many many years.Maybe too long. Love the Ocean!
