The world's BEST community!

No but seriously, Freshie Sunrise Swims is pretty awesome. We're a social swim group on a mission to connect the local community so that everyone has a place they feel like they belong.

We meet up every Friday, 7am at Freshwater beach for a dip in the ocean, coffee, and catchups. Absolutely everyone is welcome to join us.

Just turn up! It's really that easy.

Meet us at Freshie beach on a Friday, 5-10 mins before 7am. Introduce yourself to any of our delightful members or ask for 'Sarah' and she'll keep you company while you meet the crew.

The best way to keep up to date on our swims is to give us a follow on instagram or sign up for our monthly newsletter.

Where: Freshwater Beach

When: every Friday! All seasons, all weather, we'll be there.

Look for our yellow flag standing proudly in the sand and you won't miss us.

The main thing is you! Swimmers are pretty important, a towel and keep cup are also very helpful.

In winter make sure you bring something warm too! Puffy jacket, trackies, and uggs recommended - it gets icyyy.

It's just a social swim (like reallyyyy social) so you can leave the goggles at home for this one. We just jump in, splash around for a bit, then grab a coffee. Easy peasy.

Yes to all! When we say everyone is welcome to join we really do mean it.

Bring a mate, family member, your little ones, whoever. We also LOVE the furry friends of Freshie Sunrise Swims, but just note they technically aren't allowed on the beach.

Totally understandable. We've all been there!

So many people join us solo, we promise you'll be welcomed right into the group. You can go up to absolutely anyone and start up a convo.

If that still sounds daunting, just ask someone to point you towards Sarah. She's our founder and will happily stick by your side until you feel more comfortable in the group!

When we say every Friday, we really do mean it.

Winter is cold but oh so fun! The dips are shorter, and the hot coffees even tastier. Join us! It's basically a free ice bath.

The best place to stay up to date with all things Freshie Sunrise Swims is through our instagram @freshiesunriseswims. We post weekly reminders about the swims and will clue you into any pub nights or other casual social events we have organised.

We also recommend signing up to our newsletter. This is where we'll be notifying everyone about our big flagship events, pre-swim workshops, etc. We hate spam emails, so promise not to email you more than once a month!

'The more the merrier' is kind of our motto here at Freshie Sunrise Swims. So why not add a few extra social events to our calendars?

We catch up once a month for a pub night - trivia, bingo, or just a casual dinner. Our mates at Harbord Hotel even offer us some cheeky discounts.

We also host two flagship events each year - an anniversary party and Christmas party. These are always so much fun!

There's also other events cropping up every now and then - picnics, BBQs, etc. Keep an eye on socials to stay up to date!

We LOVE collaborations. Communities supporting communities makes us so happy.
