Every Friday a group meet near the Hyatt at 8 am for an 800 m swim up the beach, rest and then 800m swim down the beach followed by an optional coffee at Starbucks. This is an ideal setting to develop your open water confidence as the swim is close to the shore and you can start or stop anytime you like. If you don't want people to wait for you at the far end just say. Usually some people will start at 7:15 for a 3.2 km double.
No need to ask if it's on this week: if it's Friday and 8 am, there'll be some swimmers there.
