Brace Yourself, it's the Whitby Boxing Day Dip

The Whitby Christmas tradition of running into the North Sea on Boxing Day morning continues today.

The annual Whitby Lions Boxing Morning Dip is on again this year. Here is a little history about the event.

Last year was the biggest ever, raising nearly £5,000.00 for local charities with 250 people taking part. It has become a Whitby Christmas tradition to go and see the dippers run in the North Sea on Boxing Day morning, and it draws over two thousand people.

You can even go as a superhero if you wish...

And you can enter on the day.
