Please note:

The proceeds of the Kilkee Bay Swim go back into the local community supporting the upkeep and maintenance of amenities such as the Kilkee playground. Your entry is a donation to a worthy local cause. All persons involved in organising this event are giving their time entirely voluntarily. However outside of this there are significant expenses incurred to run this event. Our number one priority is the safety of the participants and volunteers so we cannot guarantee the event will go ahead on the preferred date and backup dates have been selected for the 11th and 24th August. With this in mind we appreciate your understanding that there will be no refunds for alternate date changes or if entrants are unable to participate.
