RNLI Clovelly Charity Swim 2025

Dive into our annual two-mile supported sea swim from Clovelly's historic slipway

On Sunday 31 August 2025 Clovelly village will play host to its annual sea swim in aid of the RNLI.

Taking place ahead of the popular Crab and Lobster Festival, the swim is fully supported and offers both one and two-mile options.

The event is open to intermediate and experienced open water swimmers over the age of 12 (under 18's to be accompanied by an adult). All swimmers must wear a wetsuit.

Registration for the swim is free, and while we ask everyone to pledge to raise at least £70 through sponsorship, being Clovelly's 150th anniversary it would be amazing if you were able to raise £150, one pound for every year our Clovelly RNLI volunteers have been saving lives.

As well as a challenging, rewarding swim in the beautiful waters of Clovelly, each participant will receive:

  • Free entry to the Crab and Lobster Festival
  • BBQ brunch
  • Neck ribbon souvenir

The swim is an absolutely fantastic event largely run by volunteers, without whom it wouldn’t be possible. It promises to be great fun with a fantastic atmosphere, so do come along and get involved.

You must attend the safety briefing before the start of the swim.
