Diving

COME AND DIVE INTO THE HARBOUR

Are you swimming the Krüger Relay – or are you just cheering from the quay?

Then stop by Hovedstadens Svømmeklub and try diving from the edge of the harbour. You don’t need to be a professional swimmer or diver – you just need to be ready to try something new and fun.

Bring your colleagues, feel the thrill, and jump into the harbour with us!

Everyone is welcome – including those not taking part in TrygFonden Copenhagen Swim.

Children can play and learn lifesaving with TrygFonden

Children can play and learn lifesaving free of charge at the event site while the event is taking place. TrygFonden Coastal Lifeguarding’s skilled lifeguards will be ready to teach at the iconic lifeguard tower.

Lifesaving is not just for professionals in uniform. It is also a fun activity and an important skill for all of us who live in a country surrounded by water.

The lifeguards will use the equipment in the lifeguard tower for fun exercises, making it easy for young water lovers to practise saving themselves and others – in a safe setting.

The activities will take place both on land and in the water, and there will be a limited number of places available. The lifeguards will set up a pool in the canal, which will be three metres deep with a net bottom. It is therefore important that the children are able to swim. Wetsuits will be available for the children to borrow.

The activities take place on Friday from 14:30 to 19:30 and Saturday from 9:30 to 16:00.

Bring your children along for a fun and educational day. Or visit one of the many swimming pools where TrygFonden has a lifeguard tower with equipment that your children can freely play and learn with.
