Open Water SwimmingHello everyone,
Not the start to 2021 we had hoped for but following the governments’ announcement of a new national lockdown unfortunately the lake is closed from Tuesday 5th January 2021 until further notice.
Anyone who has a booking over the next few weeks will be contacted so please bear with us whilst we contact everyone.
Our water sports shop will be open for postal orders so please email us should you wish to purchase any equipment.
Whilst some of our staff will be working during this time the hours will vary from our normal operating hours, so should you need to contact us please send an email rather than calling and we will get back to you.
Once we have more details regarding the lake re-opening, we will update our websites.
Please stay safe during this time and we look forward to welcoming you back to the lake as soon as we can.
Simon Frost and the Bray Lake Team
Whether you have been open water swimming for years or just fancy giving it a go, Bray Lake is a great place to swim. It doesn't matter whether its your first time or whether you are a seasoned professional you will always get a friendly welcome, a great cup of coffee or tea and get to swim with a bunch of like minded people. Bray Lake swimming is friendly and safe, yet challenging if you need it to be with a variety of distances and exposure.
At Bray Lake Open Water Swimming Centre we pride ourselves on our friendly and approachable atmosphere and welcome open water swimmers and triathletes of all abilities. If you are new to open water swimming or are unsure of your ability you should be confident to swim a minimum of 250m unaided. For those who aren't we run regular Intro To Open Water Swim courses, please contact us for more information. Our onsite swim professionals also run regular clinics and coaching sessions for all levels from novice to pro.
Due to Covid-19 we have made some changes to our swim operation and all customers must make themselves aware of the current rules and guidelines before coming to the lake. Please click on the Covid-19 Guidelines for our latest update.
All swims must be pre-booked online, please do not turn up without a booking as you will not be admitted to swim. Please be aware wetsuit rental is not available at this time.
Below is more information on how to register and book a swim.
You can access the booking site by clicking on the Online Booking button.
Swimming Registration Renewal
For those already registered, you will be sent an email when your renewal is due, please follow the instructions below. Please make sure you renew your current registration rather than creating a new account as this causes issues on the system especially with swim cards.
If you have already self-registered online, please follow the link below and select Existing Customers With Password, you will need to enter your registered email address and password. There is a forgotten password link should you require it. Once logged in you will either be taken directly to the renewal process or you will need to select Renew User Account in the bottom right column of the home page.
If you were registered by one of our reception team, please contact us on 01628 638860 and we will supply you with a password for you to complete the renewal.
