Wetsuits are ideal if you have one. The club do not have any available to use.
A waterproof jacket or a cagoule (cag) are useful to reduce any wind chill.
Polyester jumpers (i.e. fleeces) are good at keeping you warmer if they get wet.

Please wear suitable footwear that will protect your feet, trainers are ideal, water shoes are OK, but can often get stuck in the wet sand. Flip Flops, Crocs and Wellingtons are not suitable.
