Thanks to title sponsor ANSA Rentals (Barbados' Car Rental Experts) Sentiments from Swimmers "A short note from me to thank you guys very much indeed for a wonderful day at Carlisle Bay today. The 5k was an unforgettable experience. Although I was trying to race, to be surrounded by so many beautiful fish, turtles and other sea life was just incredible and also very distracting! It is hard to explain just how complete a contrast today was to most of the open water swimming in the UK. Truly a day that my son and I will remember for the rest of our lives. Thanks to everyone who helped and I hope that we get to return to your beautiful island again before too long!" Jim, London "Loved your event!! We had such a blast swimming with the turtles each loop and enjoyed all of the sights in the gorgeous sea! Fabulous event ... Fabulous new friends ... Fabulous prizes ... Fabulous island!! Thank you for all your hard work to host such festive days of aquatic fun in the sea! Already looking forward to the next time that I can return to swim in your event again!"
