The Lee Swim is one of the top open water swimming events in Ireland and everyone is welcome. The Lee River course runs through the centre of Cork to maximise crowds – a great family event!

In 2009 the Lee Swim Organising Committee is planning for 400 swimmers! Most of the swimmers compete for age group prizes (under 20, 20-24, 25-29….up to 80-84) or to raise money for local charities and a good number just swim for the enjoyment of the day and the cheers of family and friends.
