Tour Highlights
Ideal preparation for swimmers who are training for a 10km swim race or another marathon swim event
Support and encouragement from world-class coaches with extensive marathon swimming backgrounds
Fantastic chance to meet like-minded participants in a wonderful training environment
Soak up the wisdom of seasoned swim guides, with full safety escort on all swims and technique advice with in-depth video playback
Discover the unique Croatian scenery both above and below the Adriatic Sea
Whether you are preparing for an upcoming 10km swim race, a marathon swim event somewhere in the world, or simply want to challenge yourself, this open water swim coaching camp is the ideal way to ensure that both your body and your mind are prepared for the challenges that you’ll face as you push yourself to 10km and beyond.
With a team of experienced marathon swimmers to support you throughout the camp, this six days of open water coaching includes video analysis of your swim technique, as well as key coaching points to improve your overall performance in the water. Q&A sessions with your SwimTrek coaches give you a fantastic opportunity to discuss your progress and focus on future training needs. After building up the swim distances over the first few days, you will have the chance to complete a full 10km swim to truly gauge the improvement that you’ve made throughout your time in the water.
Our accommodation in the town of Porto Petro overlooks the marina and is close to swim locations, which helps to optimise the mix of coaching and relaxation time throughout your trip.
Who is this trip for?
This coaching camp is ideal for swimmers who are planning to take part in an open water marathon swim event of up to 15km, or those who are looking to challenge themselves in a safe and supportive open water environment.
Whether your marathon swim is in cold water, warm water, in the sea or in a lake, this camp is perfect for those who are looking to improve their stroke and endurance under the watchful eye of our experienced coaches. The camp features long and short open water swims with full safety cover, and incorporates technical analysis and a nutrition seminar over the course of your stay. Swimmers should also have a basic understanding of open water swimming and be capable of completing the average daily swim distance of around 4 km prior to the start of the trip. The average daily swim distance is around 7km (split over a minimum of two swims).
We have given this trip a ‘Challenging’ grading. These trips are for experienced open water swimmers who want to push themselves.
If you are training for an endurance Long Distance event, like an English Channel solo swim, or similar ultra-marathon, please check out our Channel and Long Distance Training Camp on the Dalmatian Coast.

Travel Advice

Loved the company, the guides, the challenge and really well organised. Overall a great experience.
Stephen D, Ireland - 2022 -
It was the best week. I was pretty nervous and definitely didn't think I'd be able to manage the 10k, but the guides were incredible, the sea was beautiful, the other swimmers were the best company and completing the 10k swim at the end of the trip was just the most brilliant feeling!
