To get started, simply:
1. Create A Profile
In order to view potential swim buddies, you’ll need your own profile.
Add some basic information like your first name, your email (which is kept private), a brief bio, your primary location and your swimming style.
You can also add a photo, and include your swimming groups and clubs, ocean pools you frequent, and the events you’re planning on participating in.
Tip: Add a photo to get the blue ‘Verified’ tick on your profile
2. Search For A Buddy
Visit the swim buddy directory and filter listings by location to discover potential swim buddies.
Map view allows you to see who’s located at locations nearby.
3. View Swimmer Profiles
Browse swimmer profiles to find the perfect match for your swimming style.
Only swim buddies with their own profile can view others’ profile details.
4. Make Contact & Meet Up
When you find a potential swim buddy, you can contact them via our private online direct messaging service.
From there, it’s up to you both to organise to meet up for a swim together and share contact details if you choose.
