The endurance swimmer started his mammoth challenge from Land's End and 49 days later, he finished his swim in Dover, Kent.
He was stung by countless jellyfish along the way, and damaged his shoulder too. His wife Antoinette says it's been very difficult being away from him.
The environment secretary Michael Gove was among the crowds who welcomed him after completing his epic journey.
