We are back to St John, USVI for swim camp! Ready to get back in the warm clear water of the Carribean to swim with friends and da fishes! Our home base will be Concordia Eco resort which has been under new management for over a year. Plan to swim about 1 mile each morning then meet in the afternoon to work on skills, drills, and videotaping. Plan to eat, sleep, rest and swim with like minded folks for the week.
Where: St John, US Virgin Islands
Who: Open Water Swimmers, Triathletes, and Fitness Swimmers who are comfy in the water, want to improve, feel stronger, improve their awareness, learn, and have fun!
*Sorry, but this is not a camp for swimmers who are fearful or uncomfortable in the water.

Must Bring:
You must bring a swim buoy bag for the open water swims and a tempo trainer (Finis is the one I use). Wetsuit-designed for swimming IF you think you easily get cold, towels, two pairs of Goggles-clear and tinted, two bathing suits, sneakers for walking.
Lodging options:
Most convenient is Concordia Eco resort, but there are house rentals in the area.
Car Rental:
It is best to rent a 4 wheel drive vehicle-book early.
TIPS:
*Please, plan to stay for the entire camp. Stay for all of Monday, if you can, to wrap things up. This day is key, what to do next after camp ends. Plan to leave Tuesday.
*Book early, if you are flying you can come in and settle in the day before.
*Businesses shut early on the island so no cabs, groceries, gas, restaurants, etc typically after 8pm. Plan accordingly.
