The Across the Lake Swim Kelowna presented by Beem Credit Union is Canada's largest and longest running open water swim. With a history dating back to 1949, it was initially used as a rite of passage for local swim clubs and was a major part of the Kelowna Regatta.

Your registration includes FREE Fresh Air Open Water Swim Clinics that take place every Saturday for 5 weeks before the swim. Also included is cool swag, a numbered event cap, finish line food, insurance, a bus ride to the start line, awards at the finish and the thrill of swimming across Okanagan Lake!
