A swim in paradise.

Join Masters Swimming Queensland and the North Mackay Sinkers for the Whitehaven Ocean Swim, set on the world-famous sands of Whitehaven Beach in the Whitsundays.

This is more than just a swim; it’s an experience. Your entry includes a full-day return trip from Shute Harbour, reef and island taxes, transfers ashore, the swim itself, and a light lunch package. Non-swimming companions can also join the adventure, with a limited number of guest ferry tickets available.

Choose your challenge:

500m: a short splash in paradise.

1km: the sweet spot for those wanting to soak it all in.

2km: a rewarding open water challenge in one of the most spectacular settings on earth.

Entries are open to all swimmers (not just Masters members) from 1 July, at $195 + fees. Official event T-shirts can also be purchased during registration for $35.

With its impossibly white sand, turquoise water, and the camaraderie of the swim community, this is one event you’ll never forget.
