Welcome to the forum Ferox, people have been swimming in the sea for a few weeks now .

It's a bit like asking how long's a piece of string really?
It depends on how much you can take the cold. I paddled in it last week and to me it was freezing cold but my 4 year old lad was swimming in it!!!

The few people I saw swimming a way out had wetsuits on. I thought it was damned cold but there you go.
