THE Christmas Day swim at Charmouth has been cancelled.
Lyme Regis RNLI, the main beneficiary of the event, says due to forecast strong winds and large waves the event has unfortunately been called off.
The RNLI says it hopes that those taking part understand the decision and do not enter the water.
The weather conditions coincide with high tide this morning.
