Overview
1, 3 or 5km Open Water Swim in the beautiful Global Geopark, English Riviera, Devon. The perfect location for Open Water swimming. Staged in the sheltered waters off Goodrington Sands all competitors will experience Open Water Swimming at its very best. The swim course is set in a natural arena that is created by the cliffs at both ends of the beach and the wonderful spectator promenade on North Beach. Spectators will be able to cheer on every stroke as the competitors swim along the sea wall. There are three "go-long" distances on offer to challenge your spirit of adventure 1, 3 or 5km. All distances start on the soft sand of South Beach and swim a circuit of the Goodrington Sands Bay. The 5km swim the main course area twice. The finish line for each distance is back on the sand at South beach.
