Gifts for the open water / wild swimmers

As well as essentials for all year round swimming we’ve developed a series of products that are ideal as gifts for the open water or wild swimmer. Having actually had some time to sit down and plan our online shop during the first Covid lockdown, an idea we’d had for some time. We started with greetings cards - all designed in house, then onto small swimming-related gifts, before then moving onto larger items….and our open water swim shop has developed from there.

Below we’ll take you through some of our swimming products and gifts :

  • A fairly recent addition (at the time of writing) are the Ulu Dry Bag tow floats. The brightest and most visible in the market. The real highlight for us, being the Ulu Adventure Pro. Not only does it have a very handy attachment for a GoPro style camera but it’s also made from recycled plastic bottle! VIEW PRODUCT - CLICK HERE

  • With the rise in popularity or towelling robe style products, has come a massive rise in price! We really wanted to produce a decent towelling robe at a reasonable price and we feel like we’ve achieved this goal. Check out our towelling robe for swimmers (or surfers). CLICK HERE

  • We started off selling surplus swimming caps from our events and soon realised that we were quite good at designing swimming caps! Since the first event we’ve continued to add to the range, with the Swimfari range coming out very soon. VIEW SWIMMING CAPS HERE

  • We’ve designed lots of swim related logos and the logical step was to then go into t-shirts and clothing….which we did! These include our tongue in cheek ‘Wetsuits are for Wimps’ logo, as well as our ‘Wild Swimmer 365’, ‘Real athletes have beards’, St Michael’s mount ‘Bucket List Swimmer’ tee, coming out soon is our ‘Powered by old man strength’ t-shirt… CLICK HERE FOR WOMENS / HERE FOR MENS

  • Another idea that took us a year or two to develop was our Cornish Swim Trumps card game. The big obstacle was finding an affordable way to produce the game, which we finally managed to do. VIEW PRODUCT - CLICK HERE

  • Our range of open water / wild swimming specific greetings cards continues to grow. It started with a simple birthday card and we haven’t looked back. VIEW FULL RANGE

  • To send with (or without) a card is a full range of pocket make-up mirrors, stickers, bottle openers and/or badges. All designed for open water / wild swimmers and have swim-specific designs. The stickers are a big seller. CLICK HERE FOR - STICKERS, BOTTLE OPENER & BADGES

  • Tidal clocks are one of our faves. A constant reminder of the tides state and which swims are available, at the desired time of day. CLICK HERE TO FIND OUT MORE

  • Skin care oil for the open water swimmer. Made in our home town of Newquay - this blend of oil has been specifically put together for people that swim or surf in salt/freshwater and are exposed to the elements. READ ON…

  • Tote bags designed for swimmers are another top seller. We especially like the ‘I love cold water shock’ bag, that is made from off-cuts and is environmentally friendly. Ideal for the wild swimmer that doesn’t carry round quite as much gear when swimming. VIEW BAGS

  • Books and bookmarks. Bookmarks were a no-brainer for us. A great little gift to slip into a card and easy to post. We produce a couple of books. One ideal for planning and recording your swimming activity in Cornwall (comes with a pen made from corn husk) and the other is a mindfulness-style colouring book, designed for adults. READ ON…

  • Cornish Chocolate…everyone likes chocolate…and from Cornwall! We’ve designed some bespoke packaging for the bars and are in the process of changing suppliers. Soon to stock Cream Tea Milk Choc, Milk Choc Fudge and Chilli and Lime Dark Chocolate. Ideal as a gift….for anyone!

  • We’re always keen to add environmentally friendly products to our range. We love this company. We’re now stocking Waterhaul sunglasses. Made from recycled fishing net. Fantastic idea and beautifully made and stylish sunglasses. FIND OUT MORE…

  • Goggles. We have been selling some local bankrupt stock and will then try and source additional pairs from alternative suppliers. At the time of writing we have a large selection of very affordable goggles. CLICK HERE TO VIEW

We’ll continue to research, source and add products to our shop going forward. We always try and keep our products as environmentally sustainable as possible and will continue to do so going forward.

Products designed for open water swimmers

Tom from the Sea Swim Cornwall team is very imaginative and has a background in photography and some graphic design. Over the early stages of 2020 he put these talents to good use and set about creating an open water swimming / wild swimming online shop. Most of the products we’ve produced have either been designed by Tom or sketched out….for a ‘proper’ professional to draw up for us.

We’ve tried our very best to create and design products that either didn’t exist or we’ve taken every day products and given them a swimming-twist.

From tote bags to pin badges, woolly hats (for you crazy winter swimmers!) to Calendars and car stickers. We’ve also done our research and sourced fantastic local products that we hope to post out far-and-wide.

The majority of our products are made locally (in Cornwall). Our products are as environmentally friendly as possible and if they’re not, we’re currently looking into alternatives. We’re also very proud of our packaging! In 10 months of trading the only packaging that we’ve purchased is brown paper. We sourced a shed load of old packaging from an old man that lives a few miles down the road at the start of the year and we re-use all of the packaging that we receive from our suppliers. It doesn’t always look entirely polishing when packaged up but….well, we don’t care! For the 2 minutes that the package will be seen we simply don’t think it’s worth the environmental impact.
