Reminder that fin whales are migrating through our waters and that vessels MUST keep their distance. EPRU will exercise zero tolerance in support of the safe passage of these wonderful creatures.
Look out for cetaceans! Fin whales are migrating through our waters at the moment, heading out to the Atlantic. Please respect them and keep your distance.

If one of your NY resolutions is to swim more, remember to increase your training volume gradually, spend time working (slowly) on your technique, allow time for rest and recovery and support your swimming with strength and mobility exercises. And have fun & enjoy the journey.

Donโ€™t miss the latest #sunrise of the year this Saturday. 8:39/8:41am depending on the app/site. Thereโ€™s nothing better than a #swimrise. Probably Westerly to Catalan/Sandy Bay or Eastern Beach best. Check @MeteoGib for forecasts. #Gibraltar
