SwimTrek is the world's leading open water specialist. Since we started operating swimming holidays, we have organised swims in over 50 locations worldwide. We don’t just swim for the sake of it as we feel that there needs to be a reason to do a swim. Hence why all our locations have something special about them. Whether it’s traversing the islands of the Kornati National park in Croatia, taking your chance of swimming with the rare Mediterranean Monk Seal in the Greek Sporades, swimming from Britain to America in the Virgin Islands or retracing the wake of Leander and Byron in the Hellespont, each trip has something special and unique about it. You certainly don’t have to be an elite swimmer to come on a SwimTrek. We have an adventure to suit those of you who are experienced in open water as well as those looking to take their first strokes in the outdoors. We offer everything from one week tours, short breaks away, family activity weeks, one day swims and open water coaching all around the world. With our highly experienced and fully qualified guides, local boat pilots and full safety support, we look after you every stroke of the way. We are passionate about sharing the joys and rewards that open water swimming offers! There is something idyllic about immersing yourself in open water and arriving on an island or indeed the shore of a lake under your own steam! SwimTrek won the Best Activity/Sports Holiday Company at the 2016 British Travel Awards!
