Story

The North East Skinny Dip event is a hugely popular annual mass skinny dip that takes place on Druridge Bay in Northumberland. It is a celebration of life! Of nature! And of our own, unique, physical bodies! It is about taking a risk and embracing a moment of pure joy and freedom! And, perhaps most importantly, it is about coming together and supporting each other in this crazy thing called life!

2022 will be the 10th anniversary annual North East Skinny Dip, now the biggest Skinny Dip in the UK, with over 800 people taking part last year and more expected for the 10th Anniversary event. If you have joined us before you will understand that there is no better way to celebrate the Autumn Equinox than stripping down to skin at sunrise on Sunday 25th September 2022 and running wild and free into the North Sea with HUNDREDS of other people!

Since we began in 2012 we have raised over £80,000 to strengthen the work of Mind - The Mental Health Charity. Since 2019 we have been fundraising for the local mental health charity, Tyneside and Northumberland Mind which means that ALL proceeds from your pledges and every single penny of your fundraising will go to improving local mental health services and local mental health! #NESD2022 will take place on Sunday 25th September.

The North East Skinny Dip is a event that brings people together from all parts of the UK and all walks of life and all abilities. Everyone is friendly and welcoming to ensure new dippers feel as confident as those who have been coming for years, creating an amazing atmosphere of togetherness and being at one with nature.
