From the Ionian Sea to inboxes around the world, Go Overboard has caught the attention of swimmers, storytellers, and supporters alike. Whether you’re a journalist, content creator, or potential partner, this page gives you everything you need to dive into our story.
In Albania: Reclaiming the Past, Qasa Alom visits Albania to explore its growing tourism scene and cultural transformation — including a spotlight on Albania Overboard, a unique charity swim that brings together international swimmers to raise funds for environmental causes while crossing from Albania to Corfu. The segment highlights the event’s spirit of community, challenge, and meaningful impact on the Ionian region.
In this episode of Jewels of the Mediterranean on Channel 5, viewers are taken to Corfu’s stunning coastline, where the crew follows Simon Karythis, Director of the Ionian Environment Foundation, as he takes part in the 2024 Albania to Corfu charity swim. The segment captures the beauty of the route and the shared commitment of swimmers and organisers to protect the Ionian Sea.

Over the years, Albania Overboard has been covered by a range of Corfu and Ionian-based media outlets. From televised segments on Ionian TV, to feature stories in Enimerosi, My Kerkyra, and Libro d’Oro, our swim has become a recognised community event — celebrated not just for its challenge, but for its charitable spirit and environmental mission.
We’re always open to working with journalists and media outlets who want to explore the human stories behind the swim — from first-time participants to the grassroots projects we support.
