Ice Cold Classic

This Winter Solstice – 21 June 2026 – dive into the chilly waters of Manly Beach and help raise funds for people doing it tough. Whether you’re a seasoned ocean swimmer or simply up for a chilly challenge, the Ice Cold Classic is your chance to swim 1km in the cool, crisp sea and feel the warmth of community spirit. After the swim, our exclusive charity partner, One Meal will look after our brave hearts by warmly welcoming them with a cup of hot soup (don’t forget to BYO mug!) and the feel-good vibes of making a real difference. Run by the team behind the Cole Classic at Manly Life Saving Club, this event will (for the second year running) support One Meal, an organisation whose volunteers deliver over 20,000 meals each week to those in crisis, including families affected by domestic violence, people experiencing homelessness, and those too unwell to work.
