The Swanwick, Bursledon & Warsash Regatta is one of the oldest traditional village regattas in the country, running for more than 140 years.  It is hosted each year by the Elephant Boatyard, an acclaimed traditional boatbuilder, on the sheltered shores of the River Hamble. 

The Regatta is the highlight of the annual village calendar with a weekend packed full of exciting activities. A variety of sailing, swimming, rowing, and paddleboard races are held throughout the day, along with a theatrical water carnival in the afternoon and fireworks in the evening. See our What’s On page for full details of the programme.

  We rely heavily on the generous support from friends and sponsors to fund the activities. We also rely on an army of wonderful volunteers.  Please do support us if you can!
