A January Cold Water Dip in Pentewan, Cornwall: Lucy & Claire’s POV Winter Swim

In the depths of January winter in Cornwall, when the Cornish coast is raw, rugged, and breathtakingly alive, Lucy and Claire stand barefoot on the sand at Pentewan Beach. The air is sharp, the sea steel-blue, and the only soundtrack is the rhythm of waves rolling in from the Cornish Channel.

This is not just a swim.
This is cold water swimming in Cornwall at its purest.

Through the lens of a POV video, you experience exactly what they feel—every breath, every step, every exhilarating second of entering the icy Atlantic. This is what winter sea swimming in Pentewan is really like.
