About Provincetown Swim for Life & Paddler Flotilla...The Swim for Life's essence embodies Provincetown as a place of healing and compassion. We celebrate our community as one that not only cares about our local health and well-being, but also about Planet Earth, which faces unparalleled environmental challenges. Provincetown is a spiritual home to people across the globe. A place of hope and promise. Swimmers have come from France, Bulgaria, Australia, Mexico, Spain, UK, Canada and beyond to our healing waters.
We acknowledge and honor the ancestral Lands of the Wampanoag Tribal Nation that we inhabit.and include the Native Land Conservancy as one of the beneficiaries of the Swim.
The Provincetown Harbor event has two swim routes along the shallow East End shoreline, a 1.2-mile Swim and Half-Mile Swim; Wellfleet's Great Pond is 1 mile.
For those on the harbor shore, consider organizing a private Watch Party (Contact: jay@thecompact.org) to cheer the swimmers on along the Swim route. We will be at the Cape Codder Guest House (570 Commercial), St. Marys (enter at 521 Commercial) and Angel Foods (467 Commercial).
