Countdown to event
Welcome to the
Sorrento Bay Swim
Sunday 11th January 2026
Registrations for the 21st Sorrento Bay Swim open on the 1st October 2025!
The 2026 Sorrento Bay Swim is an open water swim for swimmers of all abilities offering the following 3 courses:
- 600m - Sorrento Beach to Sorrento Foreshore for junior and novice swimmers,
- 2,000m - Sullivans Bay to Sorrento Foreshore for experienced swimmers and
- 4,000m - Camerons Bight to Sorrento Foreshore for elite swimmers.
The Sorrento Bay Swim is a major fundraising activity for the Sorrento Surf Life Saving Club allowing the club to continue delivering volunteer patrols on the Sorrento Back Beach and a nipper program that teaches water safety and first aid to the youth of the area. The Club has a proud history and tradition of surf lifesaving education, competition and patrolling achieved through the community spirit of its volunteer members.
With entries expected to be around 400 - 500 swimmers, and catering for both elite athletes and novices of all ages, we are planning to deliver our best swim yet!
Event details are available online here.
All participants receive an event t-shirt and a coloured swim cap to keep. Participants also receive a timing device and strap. Timing devices are strapped on the ankle and must be returned at the finish line. Non-returned timing devices and straps will cost $115.50.
Choose your distance, register, start training, and see you at the finish line!
