Wales is lucky to have some of the best places in the UK to enjoy Open Water Swimming. From lakes and reservoirs to our beautiful coastline, there are ample opportunities to get outside and enjoy swimming outdoors.
Anyone can enjoy Open Water Swimming, from those looking to participate in a personal challenge to those on the competitive pathway.
Wales has a strong history in Open Water swimming on the International stage. David Davies won an Olympic silver medal in 2008 in the 10km marathon swim and more recently Hector Pardoe represented Team GB at the Paris Olympics, providing inspiration for younger swimmers to try Open Water.
