TIDE & WEATHER
Tides are one of the most predictable forces in nature. With a little dedication, training and experience most can become good tidal planners. The skill lies in judging how weather patterns, particularly wind strength & direction, swell, and rainfall can affect different stretches of water. Sound judgement comes with excellent local knowledge, experience and training in the water in a variety of conditions, countless times. The highest level qualifications also help.
Mike first swam these routes on the Dovey/Dyfi estuary in 2012, Menai Straits 2010, and the Mawddach estuary in 2013. During this time I co-authored The Wild Swimming Code with Dan Graham for Natural Resources Wales. Countless journeys later I founded Aberdovey Swim in 2017.
