The Christmas swim is organised by the the Junta de Freguesia de Armação de Pêra and Classic Car Club of Barlavento. The funds raised from this event are given to the Junta de Freguesia de Armação de Pêra to support of needy families in the parish. The Rotary Club of Silves supported this event last year and this year is no exception. A donation of 1000€ has been given as part of our support for local communities in Silves.
