Welcome to Dock2Dock London, a premier swimming competition and events venue located in the heart of the Royal Docks in London. This stunning venue offers a unique and magical urban setting, with historical cranes lining the docks, and the iconic Canary Wharf and O2 Arena in the background.

Dock2Dock has been running for 9 years and has grown in size while maintaining its fun and friendly atmosphere. It caters to swimmers of all ages and abilities, offering a range of distances to choose from. Whether you're a beginner taking on your first 1. 5k swim or a seasoned distance swimmer looking to tackle the challenging 15k distance, Dock2Dock provides an incredible opportunity to swim in one of the world's great cities.

The event village, located near Royal Docks Watersports and opposite London City Airport, serves as the hub for all activities and offers a vibrant and energetic ambiance. Participants can enjoy the amenities and facilities provided, including secure bag drop, feed stations, post-swim refuel with snacks and hydration, and a race kit complete with an official swim cap and a swimmer's gift.

Dock2Dock offers five core distances, ranging from the shorter 1. 5 km swim to the epic 15 km swim. Each distance has its own entry fee, and discounts are available for group bookings. The event follows a mass or rolling start, depending on the distance, ensuring a fair and exciting competition for everyone.

Safety is a top priority at Dock2Dock, and all participants are provided with the necessary support throughout the event. Safety boats, kayaks, and paddleboarders are present in the water at all times to ensure the well-being of the swimmers.
