Pictures here are from the last 5 years when we had between 17 and 25 swimmers, several coaches and non swimmer support crews. We spend our mornings in the sea, new for 2027 we will be swimming at different locations, we use the classroom and the 25m training pool. We enjoy using video analysis, peer observation, group discussion and personal reflection to ensure we make progress.

Our approach to swim coaching as a team comes from a wealth of experience and qualifications, Total Immersion Coaching, Swim England, STA, SwimMastery coaching styles and experience in the education and business sectors of over 30years.

Swimfinity Swim Sets form the focus for every swim, these are Cues, images and instructions of what you should be focussed on to be able to make progress on your swim journey. Everyone’s swim journey is different and we will adapt our coaching to suit the swimmers on camp.

Your afternoons are free to relax, recover or join in a few optional extras to improve your swimming.

What a brilliant trip! Heap big thanks to Claire & all the coaches for a really well organised & fun trip! The trip was transformative in helping me learn how to develop my limited front crawl experience from being only able to swim a couple of lengths or so to being able to swim over 1km front crawl in the sea. Just a few months ago, the idea of doing what I’ve now achieved was not even anywhere near my head. But here I am… I’ve done it!

The pressure free set up and individual attention was in sharp contrast to the typical Tri club camps, and all the better for it.

Amazing afternoon snorkelling at costa Teguise

Testimonials from 2027 – (See Google reviews for more )

Claire is a fantastic teacher. She’s taken me from being able to just about thrash out two lengths of my impression of front crawl to smooth and calm gliding through the water and able to comfortably swim 3km. Cannot recommend highly enough

A truly exceptional swim camp with Claire’s Swimfinity in Lanzarote. After decades of swimming, this was the first time anyone clearly taught me the mechanics behind technique. Having three coaches, Claire, Ian, and David, observing and reinforcing adjustments helped everything finally click. The combination of ocean swims, pool sessions, video analysis, and three attentive coaches made the learning incredibly effective. I left a better swimmer and grateful to have experienced such a welcoming swim community. The week was as joyful as it was educational. Claire’s Swimfinity camp changed the way I understand swimming.

Testimonial from Maggie and non swimmer Ness who attended “2022 and 2023 camps “I have been on swim camps many times. Not only does your swimming improved greatly the people you meet are always great fun and supportive. Claire is a great coach encouraging and instilling confidence in your swimming ability. No matter where you’re at. She will work tirelessly to work out little bugs in your technique . Claire is brilliant in coaching you in open water. Non-swimming partners are always made to feel very welcome and part of the group. I would totally recommend a swim camp with Claire, no matter your ability from beginners to seasonal swimmers.”
