About Us

Swim The Seas was founded by Ben Oshri – a swimming vacations leader.

​

Ben has been among the top competitive swimmers in every age group since he was 10. A dual citizen of Israel and America, he joined Israel's national swimming team at the age of 13 and was classified as an exceptional athlete during his service in the Israel Defense Forces. He captained the swimming team at Indiana University of Pennsylvania for three years; then, as captain and All-American at Tampa University, he led his team to the NCAA finals.

​

After earning a degree in sports management with a minor in exercise physiology, Ben returned to Israel and has founded four swimming schools. During the past seven years, his Swim The Seas company created and ran a variety of swimming vacations in exotic locations around the world, including the Maldives, the Greek islands, Eilat bay, Sharm El Sheik, Kingdom of Jordan, Costa Rica, Sri Lanka and Cyprus.

​

Now Ben is taking it to the next level in association with an elite vacation company and a dedicated crew, leading the most discriminating clients on aquatic vacations that exceed the highest standards of excellence.
