New Year's dive 2022 - The 2nd Corona Edition

            The traditional New Year's dive in Scheveningen, in The Netherlands, was cancelled for the second  year due to the current strict Covid-19 restrictions. However, a couple of hundred people went into the sea this Saturday morning anyway. Some at precisely 12 o’clock and many other before or after. 
Two years, tens of thousands of people went into the North Sea on the first day of 2020. This year, the organization found it again irresponsible to have so many people gathering on the beach due to the risk of contamination with the corona virus. The big sponsor Unox even came up with an alternative: a can of seawater to pour over your head at home. The so-called #thuisduik. 

During the first thuisduik in 2021, only a few dozen took a genuine plunge as it was rather cold. This year, the circumstances would have been great for a record polar dive. The outside temperature was 14,7 degrees and the water relatively warm. 
Although there was no official New Year's dive organized, the Rescue Squad was present. Due to the lazy atmosphere, they themselves had some fun with the “Nieuwjaarsduik in blik 2022” van Unox.
