Great East Swim

Whether you’re looking to try an open water swim for the first time, or you’re searching for the ultimate challenge, the Great East Swim offers you a selection of distances to suit your ability.

The event takes place at Alton Water and offers a great day out for swimmers, families and spectators. With farmers’ markets, plenty of musical entertainment and swim distances ranging from 250 metres right up to 10k, there really is something for everyone!

We have a limited number of one mile free charity places available. To sign up for one of these, you’ll need to commit to raising a minimum of £200. Our friendly events team will help you reach this goal, and fundraising really can be easy!

If you have already signed up for the Great East Swim and want to swim for us – let us know! You’ll get the same advice from our events team and we will send you a t-shirt once you have raised £75.
