Our swim retreats are for anyone who loves the ocean — from experienced open-water swimmers to confident pool swimmers wanting to explore the sea safely and beautifully. Each retreat is tailor-made, so whether you’re training for your first 3K or preparing for marathon-distance swims, your experience is designed around you.

Not necessarily. You do need to be comfortable swimming in open water, but I coach swimmers of all levels — from beginners gaining confidence to advanced athletes refining technique. Each swim is fully supported by a professional captain and a safety boat, with me coaching from the water or paddleboard beside you.

Every retreat is completely tailor-made, so pricing and availability are shared upon enquiry. You can get in touch directly through the Contact page, and I’ll personally design a plan that fits your ability, goals, and schedule.

Each retreat includes personalised coaching sessions, guided ocean swims supported by a safety boat, hydration and refreshments, and the opportunity to explore the stunning local islands. You’ll experience world-class coaching in a truly extraordinary environment.

A swimsuit, goggles, towel, sunscreen, hat, and any personal items you prefer for swimming comfort. All coaching and safety equipment is provided. If you use a wetsuit or specific gear for long swims, please bring it with you.

Insurance is not included in the retreat price. Swimmers are required to arrange their own personal travel and swim insurance before arrival.

Before each swim day, we’ll meet to discuss your goals and design the perfect route and distance for you. I work closely with our captain to ensure your swim is safe, enjoyable, and perfectly suited to your fitness and ability.

No problem at all. You can rest on the support boat at any time, and I’ll adjust your session as needed. The goal is for you to feel safe, supported, and confident throughout the experience.

Yes! We welcome pairs or small groups. Whether you’re training together or simply sharing the experience, we’ll tailor the swims to each person’s ability.

We swim year-round in Chacala, Nayarit, but the most popular months are November to May, when the ocean is calmest and visibility is stunning. During winter, you might even share the water with migrating whales
