Sunrise Hiking Swim Club

Walk into the sunrise. Discover somewhere beautiful. Take a swim. Eat cake.

Start your day a little differently with the Morning Hiking Swim Club, a small-group adventure combining a beautiful early-morning hike, a supervised wild swim and the stories, history, mythology and nature that make Dorset so special.

Each session takes you to a different intimate swimming location, carefully chosen to give you a new experience every time. We’ll meet in the darkness and walk together as the landscape begins to wake, arriving at the water as the first light appears.

Walk with people who know the landscape

Our walks aren't led by someone who simply enjoys hiking.

Our walking guides are qualified walking Lowland Leaders/ Mountain Leaders, with the skills and experience to lead groups confidently through the landscape.

Along the way, they’ll share the stories that make these places special, from Dorset's history and mythology to its wildlife, geology and natural environment. You'll learn something new while you're walking, rather than simply following a route.

Then, we swim.

When we reach the water, you'll be in the hands of qualified beach lifeguards, who also know the local coastline and conditions.

Your swim is supervised throughout, giving you the freedom to enjoy the water while knowing that qualified professionals are there to look after the group.

This isn't about swimming the furthest or fastest. It's about stepping into beautiful water, at a beautiful time of day, in a beautiful place.

And, naturally, once you've earned it...

There'll be cake.

Because no Wild Swimming Co. morning is complete without something delicious waiting after the swim.

DAY EXPERIENCE FAQ

Is there a wetsuit policy?

We’ll always recommend a wetsuit, they will keep you warmer for longer and you’ll be more buoyant. We’ll be swimming in some iconic locations, wearing a wetsuit may mean that you can enjoy the swim for a little longer than you are used to. However we understand that it’s not for everyone, therefore wetsuits are always optional.

Is there a tow float policy?

When we swim on a journey, we do require all swimmers to wear tow floats. However they are also compulsory for dips in depth. This helps us manage the group and be super visible which in turn improves safety.

How do you manage safety?

All of our Guides are beach lifeguards and first aiders, all of our swim locations are carefully reccied, risk assessed and led by guides who are experienced in that location.

Are there any ability requirements?

Our experiences are ideally suited for complete beginners who want to try wild swimming, they are also carefully planned so as improvers and intermediate swimmers are challenged. So, come along for a float around, or complete along and swim up to 2km per day. We’ll have at least one swim coach on each of our trips.

What do I need to bring?

You don’t need to spend hundreds on specialist kit to come on an adventure with us, but you can find the essentials listed on your chosen day experience. We can talk through all the posh bits and pieces on the market when you’re with us.

Such a wonderful weekend of dips and saunas with a fabulous group of likeminded people. Thanks to Mel and Rich for great organisation and cake.

What a lovely weekend! I felt very looked after from start to finish. Rich, Mel, Nicole and McCartney are all so welcoming. Great company, food, accommodation and what an experience visiting the sauna and lake at Corfe Castle! Saturday was perfect in every way, from the sunrise and croissants on the beach, to the saunas, walk and ending the afternoon in a cosy pub. Enjoyed every minute of the weekend. Thank you!

Fantastic weekend. Rich and Mel did all they could to make it a fabulous experience. Plenty of saunas and swimming and laughs. I felt completely safe. Can’t wait for next year!

What a wonderful weekend!

Mel and Richard truly pulled out all the stops to make it bespoke, comfortable, and as special as possible. A real highlight was the nighttime sauna and sea dip at Lulworth Cove. I’d highly recommend it.

A huge thank you to Mel and Richard for all the swimbles, saunas, walks, delicious food and cake, and for the nurturing way you held the group throughout the weekend. 😊

Great to have everything in one place to dry. Gloves especially dried much quicker. Perfect for drying if you’re in a camper van too with less space to dry all your stuff.

A wonderful event, well organised, really represented the spirit of the open water swimming community.

I had the most incredible weekend in Snowdonia — a truly magical experience from start to finish. The wild swimming in the lakes and waterfalls was absolutely exhilarating, and every dip felt like a little adventure of its own. The scenery was breathtaking, and the whole trip had such an energising, feel-good vibe. The accommodation was wonderful — warm, welcoming, and so cosy after a day outdoors. The beds were super comfy, and the whole place had that relaxed, homely atmosphere that makes you instantly feel at ease. The home-cooked food was delicious (and plentiful!), and every meal felt like it had been made with real care. What really made the weekend special, though, were the people. I met such amazing, like-minded souls — everyone was friendly, supportive, and up for a laugh. It was one of those trips that leaves you feeling refreshed, inspired, and grateful. I honestly couldn’t recommend it more — perfect for anyone looking to connect with nature, meet great people, and make unforgettable memories.

I had the most incredible time! Mel, Rich, Becky, Frith and Dave were absolutely amazing. So welcoming, knowledgeable, and supportive throughout the whole experience.
Everything was well organised and it was brilliant to share it with a such a wonderful and inspirational group of people.
The Watkins Path waterfall experience was truly stunning. Swimming beneath those falls is something I’ll never forget. It was genuinely the experience of a lifetime, and I’d recommend it to anyone looking for adventure, connection, and a bit of magic in nature.

Wonderful couple of days.
Beautiful swim locations, good support from the team who take our safety really seriously. Lovely food. Great fun.

The three days I spent with The Wild Swimming Company in North Wales were absolutely fantastic and genuinely inspiring. I achieved things I never thought I could, and came away feeling more confident, energised, and connected to nature.

The experience was made even better by the wonderful people I met along the way — both fellow swimmers and the incredible team who guided and supported us throughout. It’s the kind of weekend that stays with you.

Whether you’re a complete beginner or someone with a bit more experience, there’s truly something for everyone. I can’t recommend The Wild Swimming Company highly enough — they’ve created something really special.
