Hello,
I am going on a family holiday to the westcost of the U.S i July this year and wanted to do an Alcatraz swim whilst visiting S.F. I am a reasonable OW swimmer and did a 20KM swim from Denmark to Sweden in little less than 6 hrs. this past summer.
Does anybody know about any official Alcatraz swims, or what would you advise me to do?
Thanks in advance,
Jens

Thanks to everyone for their kind input. I ended up booking a private swim with Leslie from swim art which was a great success. I did the swim this week and it was a fantastic experience. Leslie is a true professional and the whole event was very well organized. Great communication before the swim, great planning on the day ( knowing exactly when the big ships would pass our route so we could avoid them ) and just a very friendly and serious approach is what characterizes swim art. I can highly recommend the Alcatraz swim, and if it has to be a "solo-swim" Leslie and swim art is the place to go! Jens, Copenhagen, Denmark
