The ultimate test of your ocean swimming ability – take the challenge!

Competitors will leave the beach and swim out to the 250m marker buoy. They will swim clockwise around the line of buoys stretching out towards Napier Port and back, turning around the first buoy again anti-clockwise and then head into shore / finish line.
