Our weekly guided group swims take place in the beautiful oceans of Cape Town. The sessions are designed to help you build and maintain your mile (1.6km) swimming fitness in a fun, structured group setting.

Who is this swim group for?

This group is for experienced swimmers who’d like to enjoy regular ocean swims, maintain their fitness and meet like-minded swimmers. To join, you need to be comfortable swimming a mile (1.6km) in open water, and have recent cold water swimming experience.
