3 day / 2 night Sydney Beaches and Harbour Pool Swim Tour
Tour Start: 11.00am at QT Bondi on Day One (please arrive approx. 45 mins prior)
Tour Finish: 2.00pm at QT Bondi on Day Three
Visit Australia’s largest city and explore the wonders of its waters! The tour is based in the heart of Bondi, just across the road from the world-renowned Bondi Beach. Swim in Sydney Ocean Pools; Sydney Harbour Pools; and in an Ocean Swim Event at famous Bondi Beach.
This itinerary offers a variety of swimming possibilities at a relaxed pace. This is also a perfect introduction to Swim Tours Australia, as well as being a great option for a beginner swimmer or a non-swimmer companion.
Day One of the tour, we will embark on the coastal walk from Coogee to Bondi (approx 6 kms), with stops along the way to swim in the renowned Ocean Pools. We will have the opportunity to swim in 4 pools today.
Sydney Harbour becomes the focus on Day Two. We will travel by our private bus to Murray Rose Pool at Double Bay for the first of the Harbour swims. We will then transfer to another Harbour Pool for our next swim. We will return to Bondi for an afternoon of leisure.
Then on Day Three, an Ocean Swim Event at Bondi Beach. Enter the Bondi to Bronte Swim (December) or the Bondi Blue Water Challenge (March). This is a great opportunity to compete in an organised Ocean Swim Event with plenty of support from your Swim Tours Australia team.

Each swim is planned to last between 60 – 75 minutes. During the swims we will stop regularly to regroup and provide direction. Each swim will cover somewhere between 2.2 – 3.5 km. Each swim is designed with an early exit option.
We work around two swims per day, apart from the first and final days of the trip, when only one swim is usually scheduled.
No, not at all. This is your holiday, swim as much or as little as you wish. We will encourage you to join us on each swim.
Most of our accommodation is based on two people sharing and for most parts we have Double or Twin Share rooms available.
In between swims you will find time to read a book, play cards or socialise with others on the trip.
You can choose to wear flippers for some or all of the swims. We are not here to race but rather enjoy the beautiful environment.
The wetsuit option is worth considering; not only do they keep you warmer, but they also provide you with a bit more flotation, protection from the sun and any marine stingers that we might encounter.
We work on a water safety ratio of 1:6 and complete a thorough risk assessment prior to each swim. Our staff are fully qualified as swim coaches and lifeguards, but are also accomplished open water swimmers.
Some of the pools that we swim on this tour feature a 'living bottom' with fish, corals, and crabs. The lucky ones will experience the joys of the swimming with the Blue Gropers that call Clovelly Beach home. The harbour pools on day two are within swimming enclosures but the keen-eyed swimmers will often spot fish, rays and if the conditions are right, the occasional seahorse.
