What Happy Swimmers Say
These Events Trust Swim Buddy
Swim Visible. Swim Confident. Swim Further.
Your Swim Buddy makes you visible to watercraft of all kinds, and lets those on shore track your progress — plus gives you a rest point whenever you need it.
Hard to Miss. Easy to Carry.
A swimmer can vanish between swells on open water — even more so in a dark wetsuit. A brightly coloured Swim Buddy buoy — in fluorescent orange, green, pink, or yellow — cannot. Be seen. Swim safer.
Rest When You Need To. Swim When You're Ready.
The Swim Buddy's dual air chambers provide reliable floatation at any point in your swim. Swing it in front of you, tuck it under your arms, and hang there as long as you like — whether you need to catch your breath, adjust your goggles, check your bearings, or simply take a moment. And when you're swimming, it trails behind without interfering with your stroke or creating drag. Not a certified lifesaving device, but a reassuring presence on every open water swim — always there when you need it, never in the way when you don't.
Your Gear Comes Too.
The Swim Buddy Touring's dry bag chamber holds up to 5kg of essentials — a t-shirt, shorts, towel, flip-flops, sunglasses, wallet, or cards. Perfect for point-to-point swims, or simply keeping your valuables with you instead of leaving them unattended on the beach. For phones and electronics, pair it with the Cell Buddy's triple-sealed compartment for complete peace of mind.
Every Swimmer. Accounted For.
For race directors, a Swim Buddy buoy isn't just a safety tool — it's a course management asset. Brightly coloured in fluorescent orange, green, pink, or yellow, each buoy makes every swimmer visible and trackable from shore or support craft. When the last buoy comes in, you know everyone's home safe.
Open Water. Open Mind.
A Swim Buddy gives you the confidence to venture further, stay longer, and grow as a swimmer. And as open water becomes your natural habitat, something shifts — the rhythm of your stroke, the stillness of the water, the quiet achievement of it all. Meditative. Even transcendent. Proof that you can do more than you think.
