Hi,

I am new to northern new jersey and I am looking for open water swim locations in either bergen county NJ or rockland county NY or anything in that vicinity...places I can swim solo or groups are both good!

Thanks!

i joined CIBBOWS last summer.

They do ocean swims in Brighton Beach in BK.

Check out their website

www.cibbows.org

the people are great and to put things in perspective - i started out last summer barely able to swim 0.5 miles in open water, by the end of the summer i was able to do 5K swims in the ocean - against the currents and with choppiness.
