Bournemouth Pier to Pier Swim

We’re back for our 30th anniversary! Take part on Saturday or Sunday and swim 1.4 miles between Bournemouth and Boscombe Piers in one of Europe’s biggest charity swimming events.

Your willpower has never been more important to support the lives of those living with heart and circulatory diseases.

Join thousands of other supporters at the 30th anniversary of the BHF Bournemouth Pier to Pier Swim as you brave the English channel in this incredible 1.4 mile open water challenge.

Starting from Bournemouth Pier, put your front stroke to the test in this challenging sea swim along the coastline to Boscombe Pier.

You’ll need to pay a £30 sign up fee (£10 for ages 14 – 17) and pledge to raise at least £250 (exc. gift aid).

To support social distancing at the event, we have introduced start waves so we can safely guide people through the start line. You’ll be able to choose your start time as part of the registration process.

Full water safety cover
Branded swim hat
Timing chip and wristband to wear during the swim
Luggage transport from start to finish location
A training guide from Outdoor Swimmer
Fundraising support
Full lifeguard and medical support
A medal and recorded swim time for all finishers
