Hello everyone,
The 2017 Bazaruto swim will be my second African Madswimmer event.
I am very excited for the opportunity to be a part of this wonderful adventure and to be able to contribute to charity in this way.
The swim is estimated to be 34km, stretching the length of Bazaruto Island, just off the coast of Vilanculos, Mozambique. We will swim the western side of the island from south to north along the island with the sea currents. This swim has never been done before! The expected duration of the swim is 12 hours, starting very early in the morning.
The Bazuruto swim for madswimmer.com is in aid of children in need and we swim to raise funds and awareness for charities doing wonderful work in helping children.
Any donation towards our swim will be greatly appreciated!
Thank you for making a very valuable donation.
The charities are:
