Get swim race ready in style with an open water swim coaching camp on the beautiful volcanic island of Tenerife. With its breath-taking landscapes and enviable climate, Tenerife is the largest of the seven main islands making up the Canary Islands, located roughly 200 km off the coast of Morocco.
This coaching camp is the ideal way to ensure that you are prepared, both mentally and physically, for your open water half marathon swim race. With our experienced team of professional swim coaches to support you throughout the camp, get ready to enjoy some high-quality open water swim coaching complemented by video analysis and seminars.
Our autumn camps start your pre-season training in style with a skill development camp, while our spring camps are ideally timed to get you race ready. Our focus is on stroke improvement, open water skills and longer swims, to build endurance or speed. Our camps will help you build your swimming performance to the highest standard, where stroke improvement and building endurance and speed is our focus. Your sessions at the state-of-the-art sports complex, Tenerife Top Training (T3), includes swim coaching in the open-air 50-metre pool, as well as comprehensive technique advice and video playback in T3’s fantastic glass walled swimming flume.
Based at the Hovima Jardin Caleta hotel in La Caleta, the trip’s open water swims take place in the relatively calm waters of Tenerife’s picturesque south-west coast, however the nature of ocean swimming here means that water conditions can vary considerably from one day to the next.
Who is this camp for?
These camps are ideal for those entering a 5km half marathon swim event, or similar demanding swim race, such as the cross continental Bosphorus or Hellespont events Choose this camp if you are looking to develop technical swimming skills, to adapt to swimming in open water and to build upon swim endurance, or strategy. It can also help with applying your pool-based speed to the open water and develop confidence in changing open water conditions. Swimmers should be able to swim a minimum 1km in either the pool or open water prior to the start of the camp.
