Description
These open water swimming sessions are part of the UWE Bristol Sport Try-series. These sessions are for experienced swimmers as they are lifeguarded but not instructed so some experience of open water swimming is advised.
They are included in Active Card or MOVE memberships, or Pay As You Go is £5. Places are limited and must be booked in advance through the UWE Bristol Sport app.
You need your own swimwear, wetsuits are optional but if you do not wear a full-length wetsuit you will need a tow float. Tow floats are available to hire from the venue for a minimal charge.
The session is two hours long but you can swim any time during this time. There is free parking on site.
