For travel insurance to be valid in your country of residence you must spend at least 2 nights away from home. You may find the Sports Accident Insurance policy is more appropriate for less than 3 days (2 nights) away in your Country of Residence.

Our travel insurance is only valid if purchased before you start your trip, and the dates selected above cover the full duration of your trip. If you have already started your trip or would like cover for a short period within your trip, you can purchase Activity Topup insurance while you are travelling, provided you have valid travel insurance in place.

More about Open Water Swimming Insurance

One of the main challenges which prevents many from having a go at open water swimming is the fear of the coldness of the water. Although the cold can be a shock to the system, it also has several health benefits such as increasing moods and producing a better metabolic rate. Open water swimming is a sport which anyone can have a go at and it is pretty much available for all the participate in. There are a number of clubs and groups who meet weekly for open water swim sessions, so popping along to one shouldn’t be a challenge. Open water swimming normally takes place in controlled environments reducing the riskiness of the sport.

However, like with most sports the risk of injuries arising is still present and with the mix of low temperatures and water these risks are increased. Taking out personal insurance before taking the plunge is recommended to ensure that you are fully protection against any eventuality.
