Joyful Swimming
It’s not a race, it’s an Open Water Adventure
Say Yes to Life Swims is the Northwest source of swim adventures (US). Our name stems from saying YES to new experiences, getting out of our comfort zones, and opening to the wonders around us.
Join us for escorted open water swim events, Wilderness Excursions (re-starting in 2022), open water swim lessons, and customized adventure swims.
In 2021, we offer 13 incredible swims to celebrate our tenth year of joy.
