Busselton Jetty Swim 2027
Saturday 13 - Sunday 14 February 2026
Western Australia’s favourite open-water swimming weekend returns to the clear waters of Geographe Bay.
Held across two days, the Busselton Jetty Swim brings together more than 5,500 swimmers from around the world for one of the South West’s most iconic annual events. At the centre of the weekend is the 3.6km swim around the Busselton Jetty, a landmark known as the longest timber-piled jetty in the Southern Hemisphere.
The event is designed for more than seasoned open-water swimmers. Across the weekend, participants can take on a range of distances and formats, including the One Mile Swim to Shore, Simon’s 500m Shortcut Swim, team swims and the Kids Swim. For spectators and supporters, the weekend also brings beachside atmosphere, family-friendly activities and a free sunset concert.
Stay near the Busselton Jetty Swim
Make a weekend of it at Pullman Bunker Bay Resort, located approximately 30 minutes from Busselton Jetty.
Set beside the sheltered waters of Bunker Bay, the resort offers five-star villa-style accommodation within easy reach of Busselton, Dunsborough and the Margaret River Region. It is a smart choice for swimmers, supporters and families looking to stay close to the event while still having space to properly unwind.
After the swim, return to the resort for direct beach access, ocean-view dining at Other Side of the Moon Restaurant, treatments at Vie Spa and time by the heated infinity-edge pool. For those travelling with family or friends, the resort also offers the room to slow down, recover and enjoy the South West beyond the event itself.
