FREEManzanita Polar Plunge
Event Navigation
With between 300 and 400 participants, the Manzanita Polar plunge is unquestionably the Central Coast’s leading provider of New Year’s tingles. An event in which participants take a dip in the frigid waters off Neahkahnie Beach to ring in the New Year, the Manzanita Polar Plunge is a “fun raiser” that is free to join for anyone brave enough to put on a swimsuit or other “plunging” attire and jump in.
Magnificent costumes, painted bellies and other visual splendors will be immortalized in a group photo taken just before the plunge. Aside from a towel and something warm to change into, feel free to bring a treat to share at the post-plunge beach party that often springs up on years when the weather co-operates. The Polar Plunge occurs at 11:00am, although gathering for the events begins at 10:30am. Note: parking is limited.
Just north of the intersection of Reed Rd & Nehalem Rd
