About Emu Park Ocean Swims

For those looking for the occasional longer swim, our Australia Day Ocean Swim (held on the nearest Sunday) includes three distances – 3km, 2km and 1km events.

This event is supervised by Emu Park Surf Lifesavers, but participants are requested to be realistic about their swimming ability and select their event accordingly.

We also like to use this opportunity to offer beginners a chance to test the waters, so we are happy for you to come along and participate in whatever capacity you can, including the option of using fins and/or hoping out when you have had enough (all participants must report back to the check-in desk to confirm they have exited the water). Subject to demand, we may also offer a beginners clinic to share some Ocean Swimming tips.

Following is an indicative map of the course for the Australia Day Swim (subject to change depending on conditions).
