This summer we’re bringing adventure to our shore lines with a summer event like no other. For those who have a heightened sense of adventure and a passion for cold water dips, exploring new places and experiencing the diversity of life down under, the Speedo Adventure Swim Series is the event you’ve been waiting for.
Get ready to explore virgin swim locations that simply put, blow everyone away. We’re changing the perception of open water enjoyment by bringing a unique swim into the mix, one which can be completed by an experienced swimmer or one new to the world of open water. This season, it’s about having fun, embracing new challenges and simply enjoying one of our favourite places, the ocean.
