What to Expect:
We launch the long swim early between 6am-8am.
Pace:
A twenty minute mile in the pool is about 30 minutes in the Ocean. Although we have a couple of Ironman finishers on the team at Salty, We’re not always the fastest swimmers out there. Please specify your swim needs so we can match you with the right Coach. Some of us prefer to swim slow without fins rather than fast with fin. We will otherwise adjust to match Your Pace. Dolphins will often change that intention. Be ready. We launch On Time.
King Buoy Swim
Half of an Ironman swim is the 1.2 mile Kings turnaround Buoy just outside the Royal Kona Hotel. This is our daily swim. Let us show you the magnificent waters of Kailua Kona with the beautiful Hualalia Mountain to one side and the vast Pacific Ocean to the other. Words cannot express the gratitude we have for this swim. We love taking beginners through learning to swim into owning this daily swim for themselves. We truly believe the whole world would be better if everybody just swam a mile a day. Get yours today with Salty Swim School.
