Since 1980, almost 50 years of winter swimming, friendship, and community.
Join us Sunday mornings at 9:00am through winter.
Established in 1980, originally known as The Cold Tooths, the Mudcrabs are a friendly, family-focused winter swimming club based at the iconic Forster Ocean Pool.
We welcome swimmers of all ages and abilities. Whether you are competitive, social, or just curious, you will find a relaxed and supportive group.
Many members have been with the club for decades, a reflection of the strong camaraderie and friendships built both in and out of the water.
Arrive at 8.30 for registration and a 9am start every Sunday from May through to September.
Bring swimmers, a towel, and goggles.
We swim at the iconic Forster Ocean Baths, one of the best ocean pools on the NSW coast.
