Aboutthe swim

So this is a very interesting swim. It takes place in Belfast Harbour, specifically in the area known as “The Titanic Quarter”… because, you guessed it, this is where the Titanic was built!

Hosted alongside the Belfast Titanic Triathlon, “Swim Belfast” will provide participants with a unique view of the stunning Titanic Belfast building from the waters of Belfast Harbour. Unless, of course, you breath only to your left in which case you’ll miss it!

This race is looking like it will become a very popular race. Although it is a new race, it does bear an uncanny resemblance to the Liffey Swim in Dublin, which has run every year since 1920. A historical swim down the center of the city and into the harbour. And like its cousin the Liffey Swim, there are a lot of hearty swimmers who go without a wetsuit (but not all, like in the Liffey!), regardless of the cool temperature at around 15C/59F.
