The Pink & Blue Swim is more than just a swim; it’s a movement. Held on the golden sands of West Beach, this feel-good event blends ocean swimming, beach walking, and heartfelt fundraising into one vibrant morning of community connection.
With a powerful purpose behind every splash, it raises funds and awareness for breast and prostate cancer, turning the beach into a wave of pink and blue. From seasoned swimmers to first-time dippers and groups walking for loved ones, everyone’s welcome, and everyone’s impact counts.
The energy is high from the get-go. There’s beach yoga at sunrise, a DJ spinning warm-up tunes, and loads of encouragement from volunteers and spectators lining the sand. The swim courses are approachable and inclusive, designed for all abilities, while the community walk offers a gentler way to get involved.
Post-swim? Stick around for live music, food trucks, beach games, and good chats under the shade of the marquee. It’s as much about celebration as it is support.
Whether you’re there to honour someone, challenge yourself, or simply soak up the positivity, the Pink & Blue Swim is the kind of event that stays with you, long after your feet leave the sand.
