Overview

Fast times are guaranteed (*), so many PB’s and swimmers under the hour! Wetsuits are compulsory. The swim has become very popular over the years, with many swimmers making an annual pilgrimage to West Sussex. You’re guaranteed to have a fun day with fellow swimmers; all ages and abilities from 13yrs to 80+ are welcome. The River Arun has the second fastest tidal river in the UK and stretches as far north as Horsham and down to the sea at Littlehampton in West Sussex. Swimmers are taken by coach to the start point at Ford Marina and then make their way on mass to finish at the RNLI in Littlehampton. Safety is our uppermost priority and we’ll have our usual REP crew including the Harbour Master’s launch, Maritime Volunteers, safety RIBS, kayaks and Sussex Search & Rescue spotters on the river bank.
