Over the last 7 years, we have been on a mission to complete the Maelstrom Seven. This is a world-first attempt to swim across the 7 biggest maelstroms on the planet;
1. Moskstraumen - Norway
2. Saltstraumen - Norway
3. Corryvreckan - Scotland
4. Naruto - Japan
5. Old Sow - Canada
6. Te Aumiti - New Zealand
7. Charybdis - Italy
In 2015 we swam across the Corryvreckan and in 2016 we swam across the Moskstraumen & Saltstraumen. But it's been 6 years since we swam across one. In fact, it had been 5 years since our last swimming expedition as three brothers. Living on different continents, the covid pandemic and life had got in the way. But in June 2022 we were finally getting the band back together again and we set off to swim from Sicily to Italy via the Straits of Messina and across the legendary maelstrom of Charybdis.
Watch to find out whether we made it across...

Excellent video! I especially liked the filming off and on the way across while swimming with one arm. You convinced me, I'll give Sicily to Italy a try in 2024. Which company did you use?

Thanks Steve and really glad you enjoyed it, it really is a wonderful swim. We did it with Water World Swim, the contact there is Coach Pedro and he is a legend!

YoWzA… what an adventure!! Greetings to you from the northern wilderness of the PNW (🇨🇦). Wild swimming addict here who swims in the local lakes and rivers from break up to freeze up (April - Nov.) along with the beavers, moose, loons, and bears. I always admire the swim adventures that you three embark upon and accomplish with tremendous enthusiasm and skill. I learn so much from your videos, and I love that you put swimming right up there with other outdoor adventures. Whilst I have been buzzed by an overhead float plane two times in the past few years (thank goodness for my high vis swim cap) I have never had to deal with a cruise ship (or any large boats). My partner has a small sail boat, and he sails while I swim alongside. Come join the fun if you ever have the notion to check out the PNW and the amazing rugged West Coast of 🇨🇦. Thanks for sharing this adventure with us, I loved the scenery, the people, and all the fun little details. I always enjoy your vids and I have learned a lot from you three. 🌎💦Ⓜary🏊‍♀ PS - I have a pair of Zoggs photochromatic googles and I love them. It’s nice to have one pair of goggles for every light/water condition. Additionally, they don’t fog up and they fit snuggly yet comfortably… pass that one along to your sponsor. Thanks again. Ⓜ️ary

Really glad you enjoyed it Mary and we can't imagine how magic it must be to be able to see beavers, moose, loons and bears! We will definitely get in touch when we plan our Canada expedition :)

Congratulations. Hope you come to Portugal to swimming too. There is amazing spots on sea and rivers here.

@TheWildSwimmingBrothers 2 года назад

Can you swim without a boat? Just put a red swimming cap so everyone would see you and go?

@calum1719 2 дня назад

We would not recommend it, it's a busy shipping lane and there are plenty of large cruise ships that make their way up the passage - much safer to go with Water World Swim

Buongiorno ho fatto quest'anno 7/8/22 traversata stretto grande emozione. Prossimamente stretto dei Dardanelli Turchia se avete informazioni riguardo la gare inviatemi informazioni grazie. Ragazzi complimenti 👍👍👍

@stefano7755 Год назад

Che piacere vedere il Sig Giovanni Fiannacca che vi ha guidato nella traversata. 👍👍

@TheWildSwimmingBrothers Год назад

È bello sapere che anche tu hai fatto la traversata. È una bella nuotata! Abbiamo anche nuotato nei Dardanelli, è fantastico. Abbiamo un video su quella nuotata se guardi il nostro canale. Buon nuoto e grazie per aver apprezzato il video.
