Hi ,

Before we had swimming pools, everyone swam outside. Now, thousands of people are rediscovering the joys and freedom of wild swimming. But natural bodies of water aren't controlled and safe environments like your local indoor pool. You’re back in nature. Which is fabulous, but you need to respect it. The more you know, the safer you’ll be.

The theme of the August issue of Outdoor Swimmer magazine is Swim Safe. So we are delighted to be able to offer a free Zoggs x RNLI Hi Viz XLite Swim Buoy as a welcome gift* when you subscribe to Outdoor Swimmer magazine from just £5.95 per month. Arming yourself with knowledge and the right kit will help you keep yourself safe in the open water.

What is a safety buoy and why do you need one?

Safety buoys, or tow floats, have recently become an essential bit of kit for outdoor swimmers. They are mandatory at many open water swimming venues and are also required for some races. The basic premise of a safety buoy is to increase your visibility in the water. Whether you are swimming solo or in a group, the brightly coloured buoys will also make you more visible to other water users. They can be used to warn boats, anglers, jet bikes, paddleboarders, kayaks, swimmers and other water users where you are. They can also be used by lifesavers to help locate you if you do get into trouble.

Safety buoys are blown up and then attached using a waistband and leash. They float behind you with minimal interference to your swimming. Safety buoys are not designed to be lifesaving aids, although they will support your weight if you need to stop for a rest on your swim.
