Swim with a scenery few pools can beat at this year’s Burj Al Arab Swim. With the iconic seven-star hotel towering over you, be part of an energising and competitive race session with fellow swimming enthusiasts from around the city. Lap the blue waters of Jumeirah Beach as you conquer an 800m path or a 1600m circuit depending on the challenge that fits you best.

At the end of the race, participants will enjoy an entertaining awards ceremony for each distance, so top contestants are recognised for their achievements. Spirits will be high at this event where avid swimmers can meet, engage and test their limits in a safe, fun-filled environment. The event is organised by Wild Wadi in partnership with Jumeirah Group. All funds raised at Burj Al Arab Swim will be donated to Al Jalila Foundation to support obesity research.
