About Guided Swimming with Lifesavers

If you love the open sea but have your perception of the ‘dangers of the ocean’ keeping you from taking a dip, H2O Experiences is here to help. H2O Marine’s ‘Swim With Lifesavers’ programme has been conceptualised for swimmers and non-swimmers alike, who want to experience the open sea, assured of an experienced team of trained lifesavers watching their back. By extending this opportunity to swim with the lifeguards, H2O Experiences provides you and your loved ones with the convenience of getting familiarised with the sea in a safe environment.

Appointed by the Government of Goa, H2O Marine has been manning the beaches across the length and breadth of the state over the past 15 years. Since 2007, our lifeguards have saved over 4,500 lives from drowning, thereby, earning the repute of being the ‘Heroes of Goa’. When you enroll in our ‘Swim With The Lifesavers’ programme, our lifesavers will help you confidently get comfortable with the open sea while keeping you safe. Learn about flags, rip currents, and how various weather and climate factors influence the behaviour of the sea. These sessions are conducted at three locations in Goa – Baga Beach in North Goa, and the beaches of Benaulim and Utorda in South Goa.
