List of North Channel swimmers

The Irish Long Distance Swimming Association (ILDSA) has provided authentication observers for swimmers attempting to cross the approximately 35-kilometre (22 mi) North Channel between Northern Ireland and the Mull of Galloway.

According to the ILDSA, this was first accomplished in 1947 by Tom Blower.
