Description
Target Audience: Aimed at all those with experience in open waters who wish to discover new ways to enjoy them.
Description: A night outing to the sea in a group to familiarize with the sensations of swimming at night, in dark conditions, carrying a small locator light. We will learn to orient ourselves, maintain direction, and keep track of the rest of the group members at all times. We will understand the reactions of the body and mind to darkness, their surprising ability to adapt, and how to develop it. Given the dark conditions, widely accessible beaches will be chosen.
