Over 20 years in Open Water Lifeguarding experience

We have over 20 years in open water event work of all sorts. From adventure centers, beach life-guarding, movie productions, open water swimming events to expedition cover we have a lifetime of experience in ocean, fresh water, lakes, river, whitewater, offshore and tight urban waterways.

Atop that, and equally as important, we have a lifetime working in fluid, constantly changing, time sensitive, remote and difficult locations. It means we have the logistical expertise to arrive anywhere in Ireland, with everything we need and be self reliant. Then we can quickly access and learn the area we will be working in, ensuring we can provide our core service - LIFEGUARDING.

Open Water Lifeguards

What we can do for you.

Film / TV production / Commercials / Documentaries / Photo shoots

With experience working on previous movies and documentaries (such as Star Wars) we have a sound understanding of working closely with cameramen, producers and cast members.
We can provide safety cover for everyone on set, be it cast, stunt crews or staff, working on or near water.
We can even double cameramen on the PWC's on the water getting them right in the thick of the action.

Ocean / lake swims and triathlons

We can provide a water based, fast response lifeguard and extraction service. Catering for any size event we have years of experience providing the type of lifeguard cover large open water swims need.

Private / Corporate Functions

Is your large social event happening in, on or close to water? We can provide shore or water based lifeguards to ensure the safety of all your revelers.

"We are extremely proud that our swim series is now Ireland's largest and our Glendalough event is the biggest weekend of open water swimming in the country.."
