We woke early and saw dawn in Oxwich bay, far too early for dog walkers and enough heat in the dawn sun to promise another hot day. After a bit of a lie-in, we launched the dinghy and we went to the beach, gentle rolling waves and warm water but slightly un-nerving to be zooming away from Heroine towards land. Oxwich Bay is worth going to see and it was such a perfect day I decided to swim back to the boat. This was a lovely long stretch but as I got towards Heroine the tide across the inner bay was a bit much, something like 5 miles per hour which my stately breaststroke could not counter, so I got a lift the last 50 yards from the dinghy. Oxwich Bay is beautiful in contrast to most people's opinion of South Wales and the Bristol Channel.
