The Busselton Jetty Swim is a premier event on the West Australian sporting calendar featuring a 3.6km open water swim around the iconic Busselton Jetty.

Held over two days, the event offers a range of swimming distances to suit every age and ability, with the signature 3.6km swim to be held on the morning of Sunday 11th February 2024.

And for those who prefer to stay dry, there’s plenty of entertainment and activities including the family friendly FREE Busselton Jetty Swim Sunset Concert on Saturday 10 February 2024.

Established in 1996, the first Busselton Jetty Swim had just 80 participants. Now internationally recognised, the 2023 event saw more than 4,000 participants aged 8 to 80, take to the water.
