May has been an amazing swimming month. I have been to many beautiful beaches and I have swam at them all. One set of friends from Edmonton visited us for my birthday and another set is visiting this week. Today we went to a great secret beach. A treed path leads down to an amazing turquoise inlet of water. It is quite the hike down steep stairs, so pack light or pack most of the weight on your back. Further down the beach there are many warm tidal pools and my son loved crawling back and forth in them.
The water temperature was fresh but it didn’t take me long to get used to it. (I am going to try to buy a new thermometer for June). This beach often has many neat shells and I’ve found rare colours of sea glass here too (blue and pink). However, there is often lots of glass that is no sea glass yet and is quite sharp. There are also many sharp rocks and boulders in the water so I recommend water shoes (or stay in the sandy areas).
I am so glad it is summer. Happy swimming. Next month, the ocean water quality testing begins.
Soak it up.
