About us

People who love swimming, out swimming together in an amazing place.

Swim Croatia

We run five-day swim camps out of the beautiful old town of Šibenik in Croatia, with two swims a day around the islands of the Šibenik coast.

Our coaching framework was designed by champion open water coaches Rachael Lee and Tom Healy of Oceanbreakers. Camps run in June and September.

I’m Conor. I swim with Dublin Swimming Club, and I participate in both LOS and Swim Ireland’s open water swim series throughout the summer season, so say hello if you see me, or get in touch with any questions.

About Šibenik

Šibenik is a medieval town, the first on the Adriatic founded by Croats, and one of only five towns in the world with two UNESCO World Heritage buildings: St James’ Cathedral and St Nicholas’ fortress.

It’s a lovely place to relax after a day’s swimming, full of history, craft shops, restaurants and cafés, with 249 islands offshore and the Krka and Kornati national parks nearby. If you’d like a tour, we’d be delighted to organise one.
