Thinking about taking the plunge into the Irish sea this summer? Look no further than 53 Degrees North for all your sea swimming essentials!

Check out our top tips below.

First up, ditch the towel and opt for a changing robe. Not only will it keep you warm and cozy post-dip, but it also offers privacy for changing in public spaces. You’ll find an array of colours from Lifeventure, Dryrobe and more!

Next, suit up! Whether it’s a reliable swimsuit or a wet suit, neoprene swim beanies, booties or gloves, make sure you’re geared up for the chilly waters. Stay warm and stylish with the wide selection of swimsuits and wet suits available.

After braving the sea, warm up with a comforting cuppa or soup. A flask of your favourite hot drink will be your best friend post-dip, ensuring you heat up in no time. Shop from well-known brands such as Hydro Flask, Stanley, and Yeti.

With these essentials packed, you’ll be ready to tackle the Irish sea like a pro. So, grab your gear and head to the coast!
