about living in <a href=\"http:\/\/pennhenderson.com\/west-hawaii-areas\/north-kona\/kailua-kona-real-estate\/\">Kailua-Kona<\/a> is its convenient access to a variety of swimming options. The most popular Kona swimming spots can be found at the Kona Community Aquatic Center and at Kailua Bay.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Made famous by the IRONMAN\u2122 World Championships, ocean swimming in Kona from the Kailua Pier is truly magnificent. What you see on television &#8211; the jaw-dropping scene of thousands of triathletes swimming on top of one another, often referred to as a <em>&#8220;human washing machine&#8221;<\/em>, happens right here in Kailua Bay. On most other days, you will find things far more civilized, typically consisting of a couple dozen swimmers gathering at the pier throughout the morning to swim with friends or to tag along with others. <strong>*It should go without saying, but as a reminder, <em>NEVER<\/em> swim in the ocean alone!<\/strong><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Additionally, just up the road from the pier is the Kona public pool, known as the Kona Community Aquatic Center, a nice outdoor facility for lap swimming and where the Kona swim clubs practice<em> (both youth and master&#8217;s programs)<\/em>. This is where you can more safely hone your skills, meet fellow Kona swimmers, and gain the confidence and experience necessary before venturing into the ocean.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c2a2b58 elementor-hidden-tablet elementor-hidden-phone elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"c2a2b58\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-0c2fb26 elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"0c2fb26\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-background-overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-faed4e9\" data-id=\"faed4e9\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-9fc15d5\" data-id=\"9fc15d5\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-82ab195 elementor-section-height-min-height elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"82ab195\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-wider\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-d270319\" data-id=\"d270319\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a49d3c0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"a49d3c0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Kona Ocean Swimming<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b9146f3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b9146f3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Kailua Pier<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bf88374 elementor-hidden-tablet elementor-hidden-phone elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"bf88374\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fc00dc4 elementor-hidden-desktop elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"fc00dc4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pennhenderson.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/kona-swimming-in-the-ocean-kailua-pier-big-island-hawaii-2.jpg\" title=\"kona-swimming-in-the-ocean-kailua-pier-big-island-hawaii-2\" alt=\"Kona Swimming in the Ocean from Kailua Pier -

So, I signed up for the Kona Master's swimming program, practicing 3x per week. A couple of months later I started doing some short Kona ocean swims as well <i>(with others).<\/i><br><br>Feeling good, I then tried a couple of Team Mango and Peaman swimming events, which was scary, <i>but I survived!<\/i> Lavaman followed a month later - safely and successfully.<br><br>I was hooked, and have since enjoyed many years of swimming and triathlon, including a few Kona IRONMAN\u2122 World Championships and countless other memorable races.<br><br>Swimming has shown me a special part of Hawaii that would have otherwise remained invisible.
