Event summary
Join us for the spectacular Looe Island Swim, organized by Chestnut Events, on Sunday, September 8th, 2019, in the stunning coastal town of Looe, Cornwall. This exciting event features a swim distance of just over a mile, starting with an unforgettable journey aboard a glass-bottomed boat to the picturesque Looe Island. After a thorough safety briefing, swimmers will dive into the crystal-clear waters and make their way back to East Looe Beach, where they will be greeted with cheers and a delicious pasty to celebrate their accomplishment.
The Looe Island Swim not only promises a fantastic day for participants but also serves a noble cause. Last year, the swim raised an impressive £12,000 for Prostate Cancer patients and their families, and we encourage all swimmers to aim for a fundraising target of at least £50. Registration is just £35, which includes essential safety cover, a swim cap, full medical support, a medal, and an enamel mug to remember the day. Don't miss this chance to take part in a rewarding experience that combines fitness, fun, and community spirit on the beautiful shores of Cornwall!
