Beginner Swim Package

Are you keen to try ocean swimming but still anxious about actually turning up and having a go?
Our Beginners Package, which is run by Get Swimming, is designed for beginner ocean swimmers to get them over that hurdle of their first ocean swim.
It includes:
  •  A pre-swim breathwork session with a qualified breathing coach to help quell anxiety and get you ready to swim
  •  An information and Q & A session before swimming. This includes relevant tips and information about conditions, sighting, navigating waves etc.
  •  A guided ocean swim on our usual course with water safety provided (course length will vary depending on ability)
  •  An optional ice bath to finish your experience (with a qualified ice bath facilitator)
  • Small group (10 participants)

This is a two hour session and the cost is $80.
Sessions are planned regularly over the spring and summer months. Please fill in the form below to register interest for a future event.

FAQ's

As a beginner do I have to do this before I join the group?
No, definitely not. This is just an option for those who would like a more structured, small group experience to get them started.

Do I need to be a confident swimmer?
Yes, you will need to be able to confidently pool swim at least 500m, preferably 1km. You do not need to be fast but it is not an event for non-swimmers or weak swimmers.

Am I able to wear flippers for the swim?
Yes, absolutely.
