The annual Sea Swim is open to all ages and ability levels, from first timers through to Gold Medal winning Olympians.

Mr Kel Thompson, Managing Director of Wyndham Reef Resort said the resort’s commitment to community events such as the Flower’s Sea Swim was at the heart of the company’s values and culture.
“We are pleased to support events that promote fitness, wellness and community participation, but in addition, an event such as this that draws attention to Cayman’s beautiful beaches, warm water and fabulous weather is a great fit for us.”
“As a bronze sponsor of the Flowers’ Sea Swim, we were pleased to welcome Olympian Scott Goldblatt to Grand Cayman and the Wyndham Reef Resort and to show him genuine Caymanian hospitality and service.”
In addition to hosting Scott Goldblatt, the Wyndham Reef Resort also donated to this year’s Flowers’ Sea Swim a number of prizes, including Resort stays and restaurant vouchers.
