Hello everyone!
We are currently planning the 2019 St Lucia Channel Swim event.
You can swim from St Lucia to Martinique at almost any time of year, as a documented swim through MSF.
Our event in July (July 5-9 2019) also includes 1k, 3k, 5k races for your friends/family that might want to travel with you and Open Water Swimming clinics facilitated by Philip Rush.
This year, those interested, can also receive special rates at Cap Maison - a luxury resort. This package, which will be published in the next couple of weeks, will include clinics and special sessions with Philip as well as entry into "the races".

Sandra Frimerman-Bergquist and Kevin Pollman are swimming the St Lucia Channel today:
Both Sandra and Kevin made it! Two Minnesotans are new St. Lucia Channel Swimmers and Sandra set a new record with an unofficial time of 10:29!
Molly Nance, Lincoln, Nebraska
Huge accomplishment! Congrats to both!
Thank you everyone for the support, encouragement, and guidance.
We are looking forward to next year and will be setting dates soon.
Huge CONGRATS to Sandra and Kevin who swam hard!
Unfortunatelly I think, surprinsingly, there is no straight flight from Jamaica to your country.
This might have been my next 2020 trip and the first to Caraibe area.. I would like to consider this swim.
No more straight flights from Jamaica since Air Jamaica stopped traveling. You could probably take a flight from Jamaica to Antigua and then a flight down from Antigua, but they would need to be booked separately. This would give you a change in airline as well.
