After your swim, warm up with a complimentary hot drink and snacks, sharing stories with fellow swimmers as you enjoy the stunning coastal scenery. Whether you're preparing for a triathlon, training for a long-distance swim, or simply seeking a memorable open water experience, this professionally organised event offers the perfect setting. Dive in and make 2026 the year you conquer the clear waters of South Devon.
