Swim the Rainbow…
South Africa’s Premier Swimming Portal
Swimming.co.za grew from a love for South Africa’s dynamic swimming community. We are building a practical home for pool and open-water swimmers to discover events, places to swim, learning resources, equipment and the people who make the sport special.
The site is operated by Virtual Ocean, an independent South African ecommerce and digital-project group founded by Kevin and Vanessa Cook. Our team combines specialist retail, logistics, technology and content experience to develop useful online destinations for local communities.
