30 Bays in 30 Days is here!

Publish date: 28 Jun 2023

There are just a few days to go until islanders take to the sea for the first of their annual 30 Bays in 30 Days swims and registration is now open!

30 Bays in 30 Days is now firmly established in the island’s calendar and is open to Islanders of all ages who want to get outdoors and enjoy Jersey’s beautiful beaches, while also raising money for two loved, local charities: Last year the fundraiser raised over £20,000 which was split between The National Trust for Jersey and Jersey Hospice Care.

Participants are being encouraged to swim 30 strokes in 30 bays around the Island and enjoy their stunning surroundings and appreciate the benefits of sea bathing. For those who don’t wish to go that far, there is also the option to visit their closest or their favourite bay 30 times and swim their 30 strokes there.

The opening swim will be taking place at St. Brelade’s Bay on Saturday 1st July at 4.00pm and there will be a closing swim on Sunday 30th July at 4.00pm.

Donna Le Marrec, Marketing and Events Manager at the National Trust for Jersey said ‘We hope as many people as possible will take part and enjoy the 30 Bays in 30 Days challenge. It is a wonderful way to enjoy the summer, appreciate our wonderful coastline and to meet up with friends.”

Swimmers can also register online throughout the month of August. For more information and to register, head to the event website: 30bays30days.org.je.
