UltraSwim 33.3 offers competent swimmers the opportunity to challenge themselves with the iconic 33.3km distance of the English Channel, spread over 5-7 point to point swims, during a 4-day long weekend based in amazing hotels across a variety of stunning European locations.
Each UltraSwim 33.3 event is different, but there are a few things we can guarantee at each: world-class safety and event management, luxury spa hotels, a comprehensive preparation programme, and premium support services - we’ve got your back and we’re here to help you swim like a pro. But it will still come down to you, physically and mentally, to accomplish your dreams and become your best self. You’ll quickly find your tribe and the group energy unique to this format will carry you through the toughest moments, and you’ll almost certainly return home a better swimmer, maybe even a better version of yourself and without doubt with many new friends.

*11.1 BUILD and 22.2 DISCOVERY options are limited to a maximum of 10 spots per event. Our recommendation is to give the full 33.3 a go and just do what you can! But the 11.1 and 22.2 formats are available nonetheless at most venues if you really don’t want to go direct to the 33.3 (you’ll be amazed at what you can actually achieve!).
Our swimmers range from 14 to 74 years old - median age of 50 at most events, and more women than men in 2024!
Come as a couple or family by adding on our F3 (Friends, Family and Fans) activity and transfer package. Your loved ones can get involved in the event as much as they want, or simply make the most of a great location. The race is usually all done by lunchtime every day! “I felt so included and really part of every step of the experience” Estefanía, #2Montenegro 2023
