Drakes Island Swim 2024
September 22 @ 9:30 am – 11:59 pm
The 2024 Drakes Island swim will take place on Sunday 22nd September with a Swim Time of around 09.30am.
The swim starts on the beach at Firestone Bay with swimmers setting out for the Island, round a couple of marker buoys and making their way back to the beach a distance of around 1.5km.
We ask that all participants are able to swim the distance in a pool, have experience of swimming in Open Water and in varying sea conditions.
Registration for the swim will take place in the Royal William Yard from 7am.
The £35 entry fee covers the cost of organising the event and the safety cover, but it’s the money you raise that helps Prostate Cancer patients and their families across Devon and Cornwall.
