Hundreds of hardy swimmers braved the teeth-chattering temperatures of the North Sea as they took part in fundraising festive swims across Suffolk.
The Christmas Day dippers, including some in fancy dress outfits, dived headfirst into the waters off the coast of Felixstowe and Lowestoft.
Held in aid of St Elizabeth Hospice, the 20th anniversary of Felixstowe’s swim saw swimmers charge into the sea before heading home to tuck into their turkey.
Everyone Active’s Lowestoft swim, meanwhile, celebrated its 45th anniversary, as it once again aimed to raise thousands for local charities.
