Amazingly well run open water event
This is my sons 6th open water event with Sportiva. They have all been amazing well run and are supportive of all swimmers regardless of age or ability. Definitely one to have a go if you’ve never done open water swimming before.

Great fun event in beautiful scenery
Very friendly atmosphere. I went on my own to complete my first sea swim and felt it was very supportive and well organised. The setting is stunning and it was fun to camp overnight. Easy parking, clean toilets and cafe on beach. Highly recommended.
Very good

A great little event
Registration staff were super friendly and helpful. The swim itself felt safe and well organised. Results and prize giving were timely and efficient. I do think the £40 price tag is a little steep for just a swim but would do this again.
Great swim, very proud that I did it as conditions were messy and choppy.
Great support from the boats and paddle boards who were positioned in just the right places. I would do it again.
Fantastic venue
Friendly and well organised event
A fab beautiful evening!
Such a lovely evening - thank you so much! So impressed with the timing especially. Everyone was very friendly. One note though (sorry): next time maybe have different coloured hats to the buoy as was quite tricky with the waves! Thank you!
