Itinerary
You can arrive at any time from 8.50am until 10.10am, depending on how long you want to swim. There will be no more entry into the water after 10.15am.
We have had to put two sessions available for each day as once the session starts bookings can no longer be taken. Irrespective of which session you are booked onto, last entry is 10.15am and you must be out of the water at 10.30am.
Check in for your session at the desk by the swimming area. Swimmers can use the toilets and change opposite Harbour Master’s office. We suggest that you come ‘swim ready’ as the facilities are not nearby. The Underfall Café will be open from 9am and is offering a 10% discount to all swimmers, simply quote SWIMMER when placing your order. It will serve hot and cold drinks, breakfast and snacks from 8am.

You must be able to swim a minimum of 50m continuously in deep water. You must book your swim session in advance. You must 18 or over. You will have signed a waiver which will be sent to you via email after booking. Bookings are non-refundable and non-transferable.. However, if there is a cancellation due to bad weather or poor water quality, we will issue you with a credit that you can use for future bookings up until the end of season. (It is our intention longer term to offer free/affordable swims for those where the cost is prohibitive). If you have any specific health concerns please check with a health professional prior to your session. We look forward to welcoming you!
