What to bring:

  • Wet shoes (if you have them) or a pair of trainers (you don’t mind getting wet), avoid shoes that will fall off your feet like crocs and flip flops
  • A towel
  • Swimwear to put on under your wetsuit
  • Warm clothing to wear after your session
  • A few snacks and a bottle of water
