Swimming in Cornwall
Pool Swimming
Our Momentum Swim Club sessions runs from various locations in Cornwall where our athletes meet up on a weekly basis and connect through swimming and improve their technique and swim stamina.
We also run more in-depth technique analysis through our endless pool facility here in Cornwall.
1:1 And Small Group Open Water Coaching Lessons
We offer 1:1 and small group coached sessions at various locations. We run a weekly session at Trevassack Lake on the Lizard during spring and summer and run lessons also out of the Falmouth beaches and Portreath
Sessions cater for all abilities and range from improving technique and confidence in open water to fine tuning swim technique for the more competitive swimmer.
What We Offer…
“The weekly lake swims have been an absolute game changer to my training this summer. It has given me so much confidence in open water swimming and massively improved my strength and endurance. Knowing you’re in a safe space with knowledgable people makes pushing your comfort zone a lot easier.”

Journey Swims
Our journey swims take in some of the most stunning parts of the Cornish coastline and are an opportunity for swimmers of all abilities to join up together and swim in a safe environment.
You may be part of a group that swims together and are looking to take on a joint challenge, a swimmer looking to increase their stamina and confidence in the open water or just want to be amongst like minded people and enjoy the benefits of open water swimming.
These swims vary from 1km to 3km and we aim to cater for beginner to advanced swimmers.
You may have an area of the coastline that you wish to explore and if you let us know we will do our best to see if any location you mention is feasible for an open water swim.
We cater for groups up to 12 swimmers and all swims are patrolled by qualified beach lifeguards and open water swim coaches.
