Jetty to Jetty Swim

LiveLighter MSWA Series – Round #6

20th Anniversary Jetty to Jetty Swim

750m or 1500m Ocean Swim, in the lovely clear waters of Coogee Beach

The annual Jetty to Jetty Swim and walk event is jointly organised by Cockburn Masters and the Rotary Club of Cockburn. Members from both clubs are involved on the day of the event, with an executive committee organising the swim all year round.

The Jetty to Jetty event is a special community event which provides a great opportunity for anyone to take part, while also raising funds for local community projects. This achievement was recognised formally through the awarding of the “Premier’s Australia Day ACTIVE CITIZENSHIP Award for a Community Group or Event ” at the 2009 Australia Day ceremony at the City of Cockburn.

The event is held on the 1st Sunday in March following the Labour Day long weekend and is a very popular part of the annual Open Water Swim calendar because it takes place in clear sheltered waters between Coogee Beach and Woodman Point.

It starts with a 1,500m walk along the beach (or 750m for some) and then a swim back over the same distance. There is a simultaneous start of both events, with additional wave starts in the more popular 1,500m swim, all finishing at the Woodman Point Jetty under an in-water finishing boom.

This combined walk and swim event is one of those rare family and community events with competitors ranging from the minimum age on race day (10 years) right through to swimmers still as fresh as ever at the age of 85 years or more. The event continues to increase in popularity from year to year and entry numbers each year reflect this.
