Open Water Swimming Accessories
You need more than just a wetsuit and a bit of courage to dive into open water. The range of Wetsuit Centre open water swimming accessories covers everything you need to comfortably swim in the cold open ocean, river or lake.
Open Water Swimming Goggles
Some goggles are suitable only for pool swimming and won't provide much protection in open waters, so you'll need to bear this in mind when google shopping. Our top picks for open water goggles are: The Zone 3 Vapour Durable Photochromic Swim Goggles are great for outdoor swimming and come with a number of excellent features to ensure you have a stress free swimming experience. The Aspect Swim Goggles are suitable for both pool and open water swimming. The Aspect goggles are created with lucid, crystal-clear lenses with a mirrored or clear finish, a hydro-dynamic design for fast, streamlined swimming. The Zone 3 Attack goggles are built to be flexible. These goggles conform to a wide variety of face and head shapes, with curved lenses for enhanced vision, polarised and photochromic anti-fog treated lenses and a flexible soft silicone frame.
Open Water Swimming Safety Equipment
Keeping safe in the water is an absolute must, especially for beginner open water swimmers! Items such as the Swim Safety Buoy/Dry Bag not only will keep those on the beach aware of your location in the water, but you can also keep your valuables safe with you.
Silicone Swimming Caps
Swimming caps are another essential when open water swimming. Not only do they allow you to be more streamlined as you push your way through the water, but due to the bright colours, they are also another layer of safety precautions; due to their traditionally bright colour, you can easily be spotted in the water. Bright swim caps are recommended and encouraged by swim safety experts, and the Zone3 swim caps are durable, comfortable, and lightweight. Here at Wetsuit Centre, we stock these invaluable swim caps in a vibrant yellow or eye-catching pink.
Other Open Water Swimming Accessories
For comfort, you may want to invest in other accessories such as a waterproof swim bag, spare towels, or a fleece-lined parka robe to keep you warm after your swim. If you don't enjoy the cold or briskness of open waters, you also might want to try our neoprene swimming clothes such as the Neoprene Swim Cap, Neoprene Swim Gloves or Neoprene Swim Socks.
