'Daily adventure' group Gormú announced that they would be pulling their usual swimming sessions at Castlehaven Strand for the coming days as a precaution.

Conor, the host of Gormú, has been swimming at Castlehaven for four decades and runs daily Dawn Pilgrimage and Swim sessions where group members join him on a short hike, swim and breakfast on the shore.
