Event Details

Our ocean swims take place throughout the year and are guided by experienced coaches and/or lifeguards.

Each swim is approximately a mile (1.6km) in length, depending on conditions.

Attendees must be able to swim a mile and must have recent experience swimming in cold water.


Safety and teamwork are priority, and no swimmer will be left behind. Come join for a fun ocean adventure!


See the swim schedule for the week below under "Agenda", and book for the days you plan to attend.


Members of Cape Town Open Water Swim Co. have complimentary access to all swims.

Swim Pods Guests can either sign up for a single session, or for the week.

  • Swimming costume
  • Swimming cap
  • Goggles
  • Tow float (compulsory for Blouberg and False Bay)
  • Wetsuits are optional


Please meet at the relevant swim meeting point, ready to swim 10 minutes before the swim start.


We look forward to seeing you soon!
