A previous New Year's Day dip in Peel

New Year's Day dips will take place on a number of the Island's beaches tomorrow.

Many of the events raise money for charities, while some of those taking part doing so in fancy dress.

Start times vary from 9.15am to Midday depending on the town.

Port Erin - 9.15am & 11.30am

Port St Mary - 10am

Gansey 10.45am

Ramsey - 11am

Douglas - 11.30am

Kirk Michael, Laxey, Castletown, Peel - 12pm
