About The Blue Gym: An Introduction

The Blue Gym for YOU!

This is a great place for keeping in touch with friends I met on holiday learning to surf and rockpooling, we share our stories and photos, find out what's going on and hopefully meet up again.  Maisie Corkhill

I love Wild Swimming in lakes, rivers and sea, I use this site to find out where great new places to swim and keep in touch with others mad enough for an icy splash! 

If you haven't tried it, come on in... the water's lovely!  Lucy Monhemius

The Blue Gym for your GROUP!

This site has a real Group focus... we have our own calendar, blogs, forum, member and moderator management, as well as photos, and group task tool.  We have been adding fishing "marks" onto the Mapped Places too, so others can use our top spots... sharing is smart!

Body boarding is my thing!     Groups here helps us promote the sport I love with events, discussion and the ability to form "relationships" with other groups, just like individuals have friends... really cool!   We have some events which are linited to our members, others that are open to all... no problem here, and all our members and followers get the latest information about what's going too.  Rob Barber
