Open Water Swimming

Open Water Swimming is one of the most popular and fastest growing outdoor activities for all age groups in the UK. The activity, Open Water Swimming, covers many types of swimming activity. Those who swim miles in the ocean, lakes and reservoirs, through to those who simply jump in for a dip.

We specialise in everything you need for OW swimming from wetsuit boots, hats and goggles to specialist swim wetsuits. Probably one of the most important pieces of kit for OW Swimming is a safety float. These floats mark your position for other water users and boats in the sea. In lakes and reservoirs, where there are more OW swimmers, they enable monitoring of swimmers for safety.

We carry swim floats from Swim Secure, Huub, Zone 3, Swim Research, C-Skins, Beuchat, Cressi and others brands.

We also carry a range of swim hats, wetsuit boots and gloves in stock. On the coast here we recommend sea swimmers use a surf type boot as the sole offers protection against the stony beaches. These boots also have sufficient flex to enable full swimming. Unfortunately specialist OW swim socks often wear out really quick on the beaches around us!

Once you’ve finished your Open water Swim you need to keep warm and change. Changing robes are a must have for every open water swimmer. Leading brands like dryrobe, Charlie McLeod, Fourth Element, Zone 3 are all in stock online and in our shop in Teignmouth.

We also have good stock of Triathlon and Open Water Swimming wetsuits from leading brands such as Zone 3, huub, Swim Research, Aquashpere and Beuchat. If your local to South Devon or Plymouth you can arrange to call in for a fitting session with specialist suits.
