Swim Ireland - Open Water Swimming

Swim Ireland are helping you to take to the Open Water for European Week of Sport 2022. All the Open Water Events focus on getting out, being active and completing your own personal challenge. Some have a competitive element and prizes, but everyone is welcome, especially  those who want to take it at their own pace.

During European Week of Sport 2022, Swim Ireland will host the Open Water Festival at Lough Key, welcoming all ages and abilities to celebrate open water swimming. As well as this, there are swims for novices, swims for teenagers, endurance challenges, fun races, children's weeks and many more right across the country! Choose wetsuit or no wetsuit in all swims, and feel free to take in the scenery or race for the prizes!  In all the Swim Ireland Open Water Events, whatever your goals are, you will leave smiling.
