What is Swim Saturday?
A scenic, social open-water swim held at different locations across the Gold Coast and surrounding areas.
How far do we swim?
The average swim is around 2km, depending on the location, conditions and ability groups.
Do I need to be fast?
No. Swimmers are split into two or three (sometimes four when 100+) groups, depending on bookings, so you can swim with a group that suits your pace and ability.
Can I wear fins?
Yes, fins are welcome.
What ability do I need?
You need to be able to swim continuously for 2 minutes and feel comfortable in open water.
Will I swim non-stop?
No. Unless we have a special event, groups stop and regroup throughout the swim. Our entry-level group never swims for more than 5 minutes at a time.
Where is the swim held?
Locations change and are confirmed the week prior.
Is water safety provided?
Yes. Coaches and water safety support are provided.
Is this for beginners?
It’s suitable for mixed abilities, but it is not a learn-to-swim session.
What happens after the swim?
Coffee, chats and a relaxed start to the weekend.
If this sounds like something you’d enjoy, our next swim is tomorrow morning 7 am at Kurrawa Beach (previously Kirra). Book your spot via link in our bio
