About
Dive into the exhilarating English Riviera Swims at the stunning Torre Abbey Sands in Torquay, where you can opt for a swim of 3000m, 1500m, or 750m. This picturesque beach, highly rated for its water quality by the Environment Agency, provides an ideal and safe setting for open-water enthusiasts. All you need is a swimsuit and goggles, as wetsuits are typically not necessary unless the water dips below 14°C. However, newcomers to open water swimming may find wetsuits beneficial for added warmth and buoyancy, with options like short or armless wetsuits also welcome.
