Swims start at the Koombana Bay Sailing Club end of the beach and involve swimming east to the groyne and back to the starting area (approximately 1 km). Some swimmers may choose to do additional distance. These swims are not coached, so swimmers must assess the conditions relative to their abilities and pair up with someone of similar speed for safety.
Membership in the Bunbury Masters Swimming Club is open to individuals aged 18 and older. Members have the opportunity to train and compete in club, branch, and national Masters events. Australian Masters swimmers can also travel internationally and train with any Masters club. Prospective members are advised to contact the club or visit during training sessions to learn more about the club and determine if it suits their needs.
Four come-and-try sessions are available before joining. Membership runs from January 1st to December 31st, and new members can register online through the Masters WA website. Four and sixteen-month memberships are available after September 1st.
