  • Race Information

    1km / 3km / 5km Open Water Swim:

    The race course is designed in a triangular configuration spanning approximately 1km. Competitors participating in the 1km race will complete one loop of the course, while those in the 3km race will do three loops, and 5km participants will navigate the course five times. Swimmers are responsible for keeping track of their completed loops.

    During the race, participants must ensure they pass marker buoys with them on their left. Upon completing the required loops, competitors should head straight to the finish line, which is located in the water. Please wear the timing chip on your left arm. As you approach the finish, raise your left arm and place it on the finish bar to ensure the chip records your time accurately.

    To compete, participants must wear both the provided swimming cap and the timing chip found in the race pack. Failure to complete the necessary laps or adhere to these guidelines will result in disqualification

    1km / 3km / 5km Assisted (with Equipment) Open Water Swim:

    In this category, "Assisted with equipment" refers to the use of diving masks, snorkel, swim buoys, swim boards, fins, wet suits, neoprene garments, and any other swimming aid, with the exceptions of swim caps, goggles, standard swim costumes, and World Aquatics approved swimwear

    While participants who opt for equipment assistance will have their times recorded under the "assisted" category, they will not be eligible for prize consideration.

    We kindly request that swimmers using equipment assistance initiate their race from the rear of each starting group.

    To participate, it's mandatory for swimmers to wear the provided swimming cap and the timing chip included in the race pack. Failure to complete the designated laps or follow these stipulations will lead to disqualification.
