Open water swimming has grown hugely in popularity in recent years, with more and more people discovering the freedom, exhilaration and wellbeing benefits of dipping into lakes, rivers and seas across the UK.
But if you’re already confident in the water, have you thought about what’s waiting for you just beneath the surface?
A natural next step
Many open water swimmers find snorkelling to be the perfect way to extend their time in the water. With snorkelling, you can float face-down and explore the life, colours and structures of the underwater world. You’ll experience that same sense of freedom and flow, but in a whole new dimension.
