Lifeguards back on the beach

and so it begins..... in blazing sunshine and crystal clear blue skies the first beach lifeguards of the season got wet in Howth today.

Its still cold, so we have winter wetsuits, and the fantastic facilities in the harbour.

gear logging still happening in the background, we are about 50% of the way there, feel free to volunteer time or effort , its an important job.

Two courses running tomorrow, both converging on the beach in the morning under the watchful eye of the latest landmark statue on Howth harbour, Realt na Mara, (star of the sea*).

(*yes the same as Bull wall)
