Cameron Bellamy
In November 2018, Cameron Bellamy completed the first ever solo circumnavigation swim of Barbados, a 90km journey that took 40 hours 46 minutes to complete. Already an Oceans Seven swimmer, he quickly set about finding the next big swim, and settled on Cuba to Florida. Unfortunately, he was unable to secure the necessary permissions and, having done the training, identified a new and unique challenge: swimming from Barbados to St Lucia – a distance of 151km.
Setting off from the west coast of Barbados at 8:20 in the morning of Friday 13 September, Cameron wouldn’t touch land, or a boat, for 56 hours and 26 minutes.
