About the Event

Dive into the refreshing waters of Dawlish Warren as part of the exciting Dawlish Triathlon, where swimmers can choose from three distances: 3000 meters, 1500 meters, or 750 meters. This coastal event offers a unique opportunity to experience open-water swimming in one of Devon's most picturesque locations.
Participants are encouraged to wear swimwear and goggles for the race. Wet suits are optional but highly recommended for first-time open water swimmers as they provide warmth and buoyancy, making your swim more comfortable. Short wetsuits or armless versions are also acceptable if you prefer them over full-length options.
With its stunning coastline and gentle waves, Dawlish Warren provides an ideal setting for both seasoned athletes and newcomers to enjoy the thrill of sea swimming in a supportive environment. Whether you're looking to challenge yourself with the longest distance or ease into open water swimming with the shortest option, this event offers something special for all levels of swimmers.
The race promises not only a memorable athletic experience but also an opportunity to soak up the natural beauty that Dawlish Warren has to offer.
