A unique fun swim in aid of brave women who have been affected by breast cancer has been set for Saturday, 11 October.

This isn’t a race; it’s a heartfelt gathering to honour fighters and celebrate survivors.

What to expect

7.30am – Registration, temporary tattoos and pre-swim selfies
7.45am – Welcome talk and safety briefing
7.50am – Optional topless (from behind) group photo
8.00am – Dip, swim or bop – your choice

Bring a picnic, enjoy a hot drink, and soak up the good vibes.

Female lifeguards and bag-watchers will be on duty. A quick dip counts – this is about community, not competition.

All the money raised will fund free breast cancer screenings for 1 000 women in under-served communities via I Love Boobies.
