our story
We are the Cornish Swim Co tribe – A proper Cornish, coast and sea loving family! We have created a changing robe to fully enjoy the Cornish coast with all of its unpredictable weather! From mizzle drizzle, to blowing a hooley or totally chucking it down to beaming sunshine – we have it all in Cornwall!
The unprecedented year of 2020 gave us an unplanned break from our normal lives. Lockdown gave us a chance to explore our back yard.
Living on the South Coast of Cornwall – we felt very lucky and counted our blessings. We began by walking the coast paths, walking for miles at a time. Walking turned into exploring, off the beaten path, new routes, new paths. We discovered new hidden gems. Then with heat of the Summer of 2020, we not only walked the coast, but finishing with a swim.
Swimming gave us a moment to pause, a moment to breathe. The ocean wrapped us up in a cool, calming hug. All the worry and the stresses of current life paused, just for a moment. The positive benefits of exercising in nature, were true! Vitamin sea - for mind, body and soul!
We told our friends and family of the positivity we felt and so our little group expanded, scooping up more like-minded souls. We had discovered our tribe!
The joy of bobbing around in the ocean, observing the seasons change, watching the clouds and the sea birds, and occasionally saying hello to curious seals. The unpredictable Cornish weather enhanced our senses and made us appreciate Mother Nature that little bit more. Though we all felt very blessed and still do, when we swim under a rainbow!
We have kept swimming, it’s part of our world now.
After a whole year, we have realised from our own experience; having the right kit is essential!
We decided to create a swim robe that enables you to fully enjoy coastal swimming with all its unpredictable weather! From mizzle drizzle, to blowing a hooley, to totally chucking it down and then beaming sun – we have it all here in Cornwall, whatever the time of year!
Our robes are lightweight and portable so can be squished into a rucksack - great for offbeat adventures, or just in case the weather changes! They are practical, Water-resistant , windproof and have a contrasting Synthetic lambswool lining which will warm you up rapidly and keep you toasty. With deep pockets, great for keeping your essentials safe and fingers toasty! They come in a range of stylish colours, so you can pick one that suits you! Perfect for dawny’s, sundowners or whatever your adventure!
Whether you a dipper, a swimmer, a surfer or boarder or perhaps just enjoying bobbing around and having a good chat. Having a Cornish Swim Co. robe in your kit bag, can help you get changed quickly, stay warm and cosy all year round and keep on enjoying your vitamin sea!
