About the Event

Immerse yourself in the refreshing waters of Dawlish Warren as part of the renowned Dawlish Triathlon, where swimmers can choose from three distinct distances: 3000 meters, 1500 meters, or a more manageable 750-meter course. The event offers an unparalleled opportunity to experience swimming against the backdrop of this stunning coastal location.
Participants are encouraged to wear only their swimwear and goggles for comfort and visibility in the open water. For added warmth and buoyancy, particularly recommended for first-time sea swimmers, wet suits can be worn. Short wetsuits or armless versions are also acceptable options, providing flexibility while ensuring safety and ease of movement.
Dawlish Warren's serene waters provide a unique setting where participants can enjoy the natural beauty surrounding them as they glide through the waves. Whether you're an experienced swimmer looking for a challenge or a beginner seeking to dip your toes into open water swimming, this event offers something special for all levels.
The Dawlish Triathlon sea swims present not only a test of physical endurance but also a chance to connect with nature and experience the invigorating energy that comes from gliding through the ocean.
