Today, October 4th, was the official start of autumn & winter swimming in Kerry. 98% of the swimmers were ladies. Four separate groups arrived onto Locks Beach in Fenit, Co. Kerry and enjoyed a swim on what was a very cold and windy day in Kerry. There were lots of very cold hands and feet by all accounts. – Photo By Domnick Walsh © Eye Focus LTD
