SWIM-VENTURES

This iconic swim is leisurely, taking up to around an hour to complete the 1 mile distance, allowing swimmers the time to enjoy, explore, learn about and experience some of the UK's most spectacular coastline.
Get up close and personal to this stunning island, explore caves and cracks, enjoy often pristine waters, and get lost in its beauty. Definitely a bucket list swim for all open water and wild swimming enthusiasts.
Our group size for swims is 8 max and these swims are led and overlooked by qualified, local, knowledgeable swim guides and beach lifeguards.
Want a private, individual or group swim or have a specific date in mind then please contact us direct.
With no exit points along the swim you will need to be sure you can complete the distance.
Included in the price is:
- Full swim guide and safety cover
AVON RIVER £65 per person
A stunning 5km tidal assisted river swim starting at Aveton Gifford and finishing at Bantham beach.
This beautiful area of outstanding natural beauty is a bucket list swim for most outdoor swimming enthusiasts.
The tide helps you downstream all the way, the closer to the beach we get the faster the flow gets until we reach what is know as the "Swoosh". This is where the river squeezes and the speed of the tidal flow increases to an unbelievable rate - if you ever dreamed of being an Olympic swimmer you'll feel like one here!
Our group size is 6 max.
We offer a gentle paced swim, perfect for breast stokers and slower paced front crawlers.
A quicker paced swim is also on offer for those who wish to continuous front crawl swim...please know this is not a race but more a chance to enjoy a truly beautiful swim. Were possible we stay as group and enjoy it as a group.
With very few exit points along the swim you will need to be sure you can complete the distance.
Included in the price is:
- Experienced swim guide and water safety cover
- Coast to Coast Water Safety swim cap
- Transport from Bantham to swim start
- Hot drink and cake from the "Gastrobus" post swim
THE HIKONIC
Join us for our new activity - the HIKONIC.
This is a swim hike mission allowing you to swim some of Devon's most iconic wild swims and getting to each one via breath-taking coastal paths. This adventure takes around 5- 7 hours and so a good level of fitness is required.
For this you will be lent one of our Ruckrafts from Above Below, a great piece of kit which allows you to swim with your hiking gear behind you and hike with your swim gear on your back. In this activity we swim, then hike then swim then hike and so on completing swims through the Thurlestone Arch, around Burgh island and zoom through the Bantham swoosh.
If conditions are unsafe on the day of your swim hike we have an alternative route in which we still take in some the South hams most amazing sights and places. We don't think you will be disappointed!
Included in the price is:
- Full swim guide and safety cover
- Coast to Coast Water Safety swim cap
- Loan of an Above Below Ruckraft for your Hikonic
DATES SOON TO BE RELEASED!
