Scheduled Swims
The Dolphin Club organizes over 25 club swims and two triathlons each year. See scheduled swim calendar here. Scheduled swims occur both in- and out-of-cove. As you swim, you will be accompanied by Dolphin pilots in rowboats, stand up paddle board, kayaks, and motorized water craft. Pilots are there to help keep you safe from other boaters and to assist you if you need support. Our swims have a 3:1 swimmer-to-pilot ratio.
There are four ways for new members to become eligible to participate in scheduled out-of-cove club swims:
- Be a member in good standing for at least six months
- OR complete the 100-mile swim within your first six months of membership
- OR complete the 40-mile Polar Bear swim within your first six months of membership
- OR complete the “Accelerated Out-of-Cove Process”; contact the swim commissioners for information and the form
Ready for your first swim? Wonderful! We are thrilled you will be joining us. Here are some things you need to know.
