About the event

The Swim Festival promises an unforgettable day of open water swimming along crystal clear coastal waters on August 28, 2027. Participants can choose from three challenging distances: a leisurely 1km lap, the more ambitious 2km stretch, or the full marathon-style 3km swim. Spectators will enjoy easy access to the shore where swimmers make their brief Australian exit points after each lap.
The event is designed for all ages and fitness levels, with an additional juniors race of approximately 500 meters for young enthusiasts aged 8-14 years old. Swimmers tackling all three distances can rack up a total of 6 kilometers in one exhilarating day. Each competitor will receive a swim hat and a special commemorative medal upon completion.
Those who enter all three swims enjoy an exclusive £15 discount on their entry fees, making it even more tempting to push your limits. The festival also awards male and female prizes for overall top finishers as well as age category winners in each distance, ensuring recognition for every participant's achievement.
Join the Swim Festival this summer and experience a day of camaraderie, breathtaking sea views, and personal triumphs on the water.
