Cawsand Swim

16th July 2023 @ 7:00 am 11:30 am

The 2023 Cawsand swim will take place on Sunday 16th July with a swim time of around 9am. There are two distances; 2km and 4km.

The 2km swim will see swimmers set off from the beach at Cawsand and swim along the Bay to Kingsand, to the Mermaid Buoy, to a 1km marker buoy and back inside the swim buoys. The 4km swim will follow the same route but swim a further 1km along the coastline to Hooe Lake Point and back. Registration for the Cawsand Swim is £30 for the 2km swim and £35 for the 4km swim . Your entry fee covers the cost of organising the event, but it’s the money you raise that helps Prostate Cancer patients and their families across Devon and Cornwall. so we ask all our swimmers set themselves a Sponsorship target of at least £50.

registration includes; full water Safety Cover, an event swim cap and medal and post swim refreshments

Common Cuttlefish (Sepia officinalis) are fierce predators in our National Marine Park. They have on-demand changing camouflage, beak-like jaws and eight 'arms' with two tentacles around the mouth.

Common Cuttlefish makes light work of crabs, fish and even small cuttlefish. They don't fancy us humans though so you'll be safe to watch them being cool 😎

A brilliant photo of a Snakelocks Anemone. They may look beautiful and harmless but don't touch! They can release tiny barbs that have proven very irritating if you get them in your eyes 👀

This striking character is a male Corkwing Wrasse (Symphodus melops) and is carrying seaweed to an elaborate nest that he's working on.

This Corkwing Wrasse is well in season (photo taken in spring/summer) with his bright colouration 🌈
