Imagine doing an ocean swim in pristine subtropical waters over 90 species of coral and 500 species of fish? Imagine having the chance to swim every day for a week? Imagine sharing the experience with 15 ocean swimmers, and one of the greatest surf life savers of all time, Trevor Hendy!
If you’re sick of that black line or the opaque water at suburban beaches, then please join our Lord Howe Island Ocean Swim Weeks.
Each day, we’ll swim two kilometres around the Lord Howe Island coastline and experience the beauty of a World Heritage marine environment. Some days we’ll swim over vibrant coral on the outer reef of the lagoon, while other days we’ll swim under 300 vertical metre cliffs or along some of the most perfect beaches in the world. You’ll see reef sharks, turtles, big schools of fish and thousands of seabirds. The swims are non-competitive and can be completed by moderate to strong ocean swimmers. As a guide, you must be able to swim 1.5 km in less than 40 minutes.
At your side will be the four-time Uncle Toby’s Series Ironman Champion, and six-time Australian Ironman Champion, Trevor Hendy. Trev will share expert tips and tricks to take your swimming to the next level. For a taste of the swim week experience, please watch the short video of our inaugural Ocean Swim Week with Trevor Hendy by film-maker Andy Lloyd, and read the reviews in the Sydney Morning Herald, Qantas Spirit Magazine and Men’s Fitness Magazine.
When you’re not swimming, there will be plenty of time to enjoy the other world-class activities that Lord Howe has to offer – surfing, paddle boarding, kayaking, fishing, snorkelling, diving and walking, just to name a few. In the evening, you can relax with a sunset drink on our waterfront deck and enjoy a four course dinner. Sound like the right combination of exercise, relaxation and indulgence? Did we mention our day spa?
