5 Night Guided Swimming Retreat: 20-25 May 2027
Our guided swim retreats are aimed at swimmers who enjoy a dip but would like to challenge themselves to do a couple of longer swims as well. On our swims we explore slightly further away from the shallows and shoreline and enjoy adventures like a dip in Fingal's Cave if weather conditions allow. The water is still quite chilly so if you are swimming frontcrawl we recommend a neoprene hat. Key information Ability to swim 8 lengths of a 25m pool (breaststroke or frontcrawl) Some open water experience Wetsuit (or another neoprene item like shortie, long sleeved jacket) neoprene booties & gloves, swim hat (neoprene if putting head in the water)
