New for 2022 and in partnership with The Swimcube, The Outdoor Swimming Company and Nick Hinde, Swimyourswim will be co hosting an AWEsome opportunity for you to join us in Scotland for a 3 day swim camp on June 2nd -5th.

 

Located in the beautiful Torran Bay on Loch Awe you’ll be in for a packed few days of swimming and coaching designed to help you improve your technique & endurance, prepare you for an upcoming event or simply maximise your enjoyment of the open water.

This swim camp is suitable for everyone from the novice looking to improve their front crawl in the safety of the bay or for the more experienced swimmer the opportunity to complete a 2 or 6 hour swim surrounded by the stunning scenery of Loch Awe.

You will be supported throughout by the team of experienced open water coaches and safety crew.
