When should I arrive in Belek?
On Saturday 29th June 2025.
Can I stay before and/or after the Camp?
Yes, absolutely. Please email me and I will connect you with the resort managers.
What swimming ability do I need to take part?
Please note this is not a learn to swim clinic.
Swimmers must be able to comfortably swim a minimum of 1 – 2 km Freestyle without stopping in the sea and who can swim 400m Freestyle faster than 9 minutes in the pool.
There will be a wide range of speeds and swimming abilities from intermediate to experienced swimmers and we will ensure that we match the correct level of challenge with your level.
What do I need to bring?
For your training sessions, you will need a pull buoy, flippers, open water tow buoy, and hand paddles (starting with small sizes is preferable if you are new to them). You can buy your swimming gear from Outpace shop at the lowest price!
It is always good to have the choice of having both tinted and clear lenses goggles for various weather conditions, especially as the training pools are outside.
Ear plugs for sensitive ears.
Finally, plenty of sun screen !
What are the passport & visa requirements?
All travellers require a valid passport. No visa required for a stay not exceeding 3 months.
Passports must be valid for at least 6 months from the intended date of departure from Turkey.
If you are an New Zealand citizen you do not need a visa to enter Turkey for stays of up to 90 days.
What is the payment process?
Deposit Payment
A non-refundable deposit of 500 NZD per person is to be paid to Outpace Swimming to confirm your attendance. The deposit amount will be deducted from your first payment.
Camp Payments
The balance of the package price is due in five installments. Payments are spread across 6 months.
Your camp stay can increase in price for various reasons, including availability, currency exchange variances and Service Provider price fluctuations, until the starting date. If this is the case, we will contact you to advise you of such increases, and we reserve the right to collect the additional amount from you.
What is the cancellation policy?
Cancellation by you
Due to the cost involved in securing your booking, a cancellation fee will be charged if you choose not to attend the camp.
Your payment is fully refundable less the 500 NZD deposit up to 90 days before the start day of the camp.
Between 90 and 60 days we will refund 50% of your payments (less the non-refundable 500 NZD deposit)
Cancellations made less than 60 days prior to the camp start date will incur a 100% cost.
Cancellation by Outpace Swimming
In the unlikely event that Outpace Swim Camp cannot be held on the advertised dates for reasons outside of organisers control caused by Acts of God, or force majeure such as (but not restricted to) weather or equipment disruptions, acts of government or other authorities, communicable diseases, wars, hostilities, civil disturbances, strikes, riots, pilferage, medical or customs regulations or requirements), the camp will be rescheduled and the deposit and any instalment payments will be transferred in full to this rescheduled camp. If you choose not to attend the rescheduled camp then a 500 NZD cancellation fee will apply, with any excess payments refunded to you.
Do I need insurance?
