The 'Bold & Beautiful' is an informal group of friends, associated with Manly Life Saving Club, who swim at 7am, 7 days a week from Manly to Shelly Beach and back.

We all wear hot pink 'Bold & Beautiful' swim caps, sponsored by Access Communications Pty Ltd.

The 'Bold & Beautiful' head out from Manly, gather at the point before venturing over to Shelly Beach where we wait for the last swimmer then depart for our return trip.

You can always find a group of 'Bold & Beautiful' re-energising at Manly Wine for coffee after the swim.

The 'Bold & Beautiful' hold two seasonal Badge Challenges.
The 1st of June will see the start of the 2010 Winter Badge Challenge.  Swimmers must complete 20 swims over the 13 weeks of winter.  The swims must be split across 7 different weeks in order to qualify.  Those who qualify will receive the 2010 'Cold & Beautiful' Badge for a small fee.

The 2011 Summer Badge will comprise of a 6km and a 10km Long Distance Swimmer Badge.
