Salty Coffee Ocean Swimming is a vibrant community born from a deep love of the ocean, open water swimming, and the simple joy of sharing a coffee with friends after a sunrise dip. Founded by Joao Carraro an—an avid ocean swimmer and passionate advocate for mental health and the environment—Salty Coffee brings together people who find peace, energy, and connection in the sea.

What started as a few friends meeting for early swims and post-swim chats has grown into a supportive social network that welcomes swimmers of all levels. Whether you’re training for your next marathon swim, just getting started, or coming along for the community vibes, you’ll find your place here.

We believe in the power of nature to heal, energize, and connect us. At Salty Coffee, it’s not just about the swim—it’s about showing up for each other, celebrating the salt and sun, and creating a space where everyone feels welcome.

Sand on my feet, salt on my eyebrows and a happy soul.
