Somers on the Mornington Peninsula Australia

Before I leave for my 69 day Epic Mediterranean Odyssey (1 day for every year of my life) - I want to share with everyone my home beach in Somers on the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria Australia.

I am part of a wonderful swim community called “The Somers Salties”. We are a dedicated bunch who try to meet up daily at the crack of dawn and swim all year round. Our beach is in a large semi protected body of water called Westernport Bay. Quite often we are blessed by visits from a local pod of dolphins. In addition to swimming together - we Salties get up to all sorts of crazy but fun antics!

My plan is to post to this site lots of photos and videos of my travels across the Mediterranean and beyond. There will be a strong emphasis on swimming.

Here are a few of my favourite Salties photos.Read more
