Come and join us at The Big Plunge to celebrate International Women’s Day 2025. We are looking for all the wild and crazy swimmers to dip together to create Southern Tasmania’s biggest cold water plunge ever!

The event is hosted by esthersaustralia.com.au – A Pregnancy and Parenting Support Service for women across southern Tasmania.

The tickets go live Tuesday 28th January at 12 Noon. Please note tickets sell out fast.

The Aim of the Event:

  • To celebrate IWD 2025 and to gather Tasmania’s Cold Water Swimmers in one place at one time for one very big photo!

  • Unite us all through our love of the sea and show our support for women worldwide.

  • Create a noisy, colourful spectacle on the beach

  • To support #IWD2025  and amplify the message #AccelerateAction.

  • Fundraise for Esthers Australia - a pregnancy and parenting service for vulnerable women and their families.

  • We are asking all of the swimmers to commit to supporting, elevating and taking one action to elevate women in their community. We want to ensure every woman taking part can create a ripple effect long past March 8th.

ALL SWIMMERS MUST REGISTER – this will ensure we have enough lifeguards for the event and keep everyone safe.

Tickets are $15 per person, all money raised will go towards running this community event and keeping everyone safe with a fully supported land and water safety team. Any profit made will go towards the work of Esthers Australia.
