The Medfish Sunday Swim Crew operates entirely through voluntary, community-led open water sessions. We structure these weekly meets to connect swimmers while prioritizing safety and group cohesion in the local Bodrum waters. Every participant swims at their own risk. We strictly require all swimmers to sign a liability waiver and wear a high-visibility tow buoy during every session to mitigate hazards.
We organize our Sunday meets around shared enjoyment rather than competitive speed. The group swims together, and the pace naturally adapts to maintain the pack. We ask new participants to join the main group during their first session, allowing our experienced members to assess comfort levels and ensure everyone finds compatible swimming partners for future meets.
While we promote an inclusive community, open water demands basic competence. We require all participants to possess prior open water experience and maintain the ability to swim continuously for at least 1,500 meters within one hour.
Starting from June onwards, we meet every Sunday at 6am at Gündoğan bay. Complete the online waiver and secure your safety buoy before arrival.
