The Melbourne Open Water Swimming Club is a non profit association dedicated to supported people to swim in the open water.
That means supporting everyone - pool swimmers, members of swimming clubs, the general public, learners, the non-competitive, people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, multiclass, special, LGBTQ and indigenous people included.
The club provides equipment and resources for safer swims in the sea. The club works with other organisations and swim clubs to provide open water swimming opportunities for squads and teams.
There are so many wonderful opportunities for open water swimming in Port Phillip bay and around Victoria. This club, based at Williamstown Beach in Melbourne, is dedicated to supporting safer swimming in accordance with Life Saving Victoria guidelines
