Welcome to our website. We’re passionate wild swimmers who love to share our aquatic adventures here in our beloved Devon, both on the coast and on Dartmoor.
We’ve written two books: the latest is Wild Swimming Walks: Dartmoor and South Devon, published by Wild Things Publishing. It takes you on 28 explorations through exciting landscapes, complete with exhilarating swims.
Our previous book, Beyond the Beach: the secret wild swims of Torbay, reveals the hidden, wild side to Torbay, away from the main beaches and the crowds.

Reviews of Beyond the Beach:
“ This book is essential whether you’re a wild swimmer, a tourist with a yen for adventure, someone who fancies giving relatively safe outdoor swimming a try, or just a person who loves beautiful and interesting books” – Lynne Roper, wild swimming blogger
“I for one would never have known that so close to that most quintessential of English towns, Torquay, was a barely explored wilderness” Carl Reynolds, who blogs as The Aquatic Ape
Hi when is your book published ?
Out now! See the Shop/contact page for details
This book is great- I bought a copy for my holiday and although I only visited a couple of spots I loved it and learning about the history of the places I’d swim. Fishcombe cove was my favorite. Thanks Matt and Sophie.
Thank you Alex, so glad you enjoyed it.
