The H2O Swim.
This year we aim to raise much needed funds for the Local Hat Head Surf Club and the Lilli Pilli Ladies Inc.

The Lilli Pilli Ladies goal is to help local cancer patients who may be travelling a rough journey due to ill health, and, if able, extend a helping hand to those experiencing other medical issues.” The Lilli Pilli Ladies have raised about $40,000 over the past four years to provide vital equipment to Kempsey and Port Macquarie hospitals. 

Last year’s event helped the surf club purchase rescue equipment and the "Heart of Courage"  raise much needed funds for cancer research.

What's new in 2025!
In 2025 we will once again swim from the boat ramp to the park at the end of town, tide assisted.
 
Your entry fee includes transport from registration at the event base in the park to the swim start at the boat ramp in a courtesy bus, an Aussie lamb sausage sandwich and either a hot or cold drink on the day - plus free downloadable photos.
 
Please note we have no teams event this year to save time on the day. There will be first place prizes for each division and random prize draws for those at the presentation.

At the finish area there will be a coffee van, community group demonstrations, BBQ stall from the Hat Head surf club with plenty of shade and parking.
