Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery – on dryland and in the open water.
SwimTrek pioneered the market of overseas swimming holidays in 2003.
Dial forward 14 years and now there are myriad swim safaris, swim camps, swim clinics, sea treks, swimming tours, swimming holidays and, the generic term swim treks, offered all around the world offered by dozens of established travel companies and creative aquapreneurs.
Arguably, Ground Zero for this increasingly intense competition in the global swimming holiday market are the beautiful waters of Croatia.
Following in the wake of SwimTrek’s Simon Murie, John Coningham-Rolls of SwimQuest, Martin Strel and Borut Strel of Strel Swimming Adventures, and Ivan Vranjes and Mateo Juric of Swim Cruise are among the swimming holiday guides offering short- and long open water tours in Croatia from the Dalmatian Coast to the Kornati National Park and Pakleni.
