Open water vacation. Help me find

Are you looking for something organized, or a place where you could go OW swimming every day?

Are you looking for something organized, or a place where you could go OW swimming every day? Vacation spots but am separately interested in great open water every day spots too anywhere. I’m interested in building a database of each. Want to go on a vacation in feb or March. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

St Croix has several places you can OW swim. Stay at the Tamarind Reef hotel and you can walk right into the water and do a lap around Green Cay right from the hotel. Or you can make a right turn and swim along the shore over to the next resort up the beach, Chenay Bay. The Tamarind also has kayaks and SUPs to borrow so if you want someone along with you, you can do that. They have a small lap pool there too. From there, you can go down the road to the Buccaneer hotel and do some OW there. Cane Bay beach is wide open and as a bonus has great snorkeling and diving down a wall. There's a nice shore route you can do from Rainbow beach in Fredrickstead as well. Look up Finfolk Caribbean Swimmers on Facebook and give them a shout for ideas. Plus they have Saturday swims as a group. You may be able to connect with one or two of them to meet you on other days.

I strongly second St. Croix as a swim destination and their economy can really use a boost after the hurricane. Bermuda is another option. Grotto Bay is the home of the Round the Sound swim and it's a great place to stay.

Please forward any info you have for an affordable open water swim vacation Criteria: warm, clear water, no snakes or sharks flexible swim times. No coaching needed. Reasonable housing and access to good food. . North or Central America traveling from east coast. www.swimbarbadosvacations.com/

Hi You might like my 2 books RETURN TO THE SEA A Guide to Open Water Swimming in Mallorca Spain by Pia Lord and RETURN TO THE SEA II A Guide to Open Water Swimming in the British Virgin Islands by Pia Lord. They are on Amazon Pia Lord Author Page. There are at least 40 open water swimming locations featured in both books combined.

Open Water Swim Festival in Barbados, in November, is a ton of fun.
