Hundreds of daring dippers embraced the ice-cold water to attend the 2024 New Year’s Day charity swim which has raised more than €350,000 for local causes since 1984.
The 41st annual Bray New Year’s Day Sea Swim, organised by the Bray Lions club, drew a festive crowd with many donning fancy dress to face the cold water swim, with costumes including elves, turkeys and snowmen. Members of the Bray Beach Bathers arrived in matching attire and umbrellas decorated to resemble jellyfish.
