Questions and answers
What’s included in the price?
Your accommodation (with your own room), breakfast every morning, lunch every day, the boat out to the islands and the coached sessions in the outdoor 50 metre pool.
What isn’t included?
Flights, transfers and evening meals. Evenings are your own, and groups usually meet up for dinner and drinks in the old town.
Which airport should I fly into?
Split or Zadar. Šibenik is about 40 minutes from both, and the camps are scheduled to suit flights.
Am I a good enough swimmer?
We cater for all speeds. On the first morning everyone swims a coached pool session and is put into a group. You do need a reasonable level of swimming ability and to be in good health. If you’re unsure, get in touch and we can talk it through.
How far will I swim?
Swims are usually split into a morning swim and an afternoon swim, with some downtime after lunch. Sample routes are 2k, 3k and 5k.
Will I have to share a room?
No. Everyone is guaranteed their own room, included in the price. There’s a choice of single-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments, all modern and clean, with air conditioning, heating and a private bathroom. Most have a kitchen.
Can I stay near the friends I’m travelling with?
The apartments aren’t all in one complex; it’s typical to have three studios together. If you’re a group who want to stay close, we’ll do our best, although it may not always be possible. Everything is within five minutes’ walk of the morning meeting point.
What happens if the sea is rough?
The itinerary is a typical week and is subject to change with sea conditions. Any changes are made for safety and will be passed on to you in good time.
Is there an age limit?
Yes. Camps are for over 18s only.
Do I need travel insurance?
Yes. Comprehensive travel insurance covering cancellation, medical expenses and personal belongings is a condition of booking.
What if I need to cancel?
A €400 deposit secures your place, with the balance due at a later given date. If you cancel after paying, a €400 cancellation fee applies. If we cancel a camp, you get a full refund.
When do the camps run?
Our 2027 camps run in June and September. Contact Conor to discuss dates.
