The 1400m Open Water Event
The 1400m course is from the Middle Brighton Pier, around the Royal Brighton Yacht Club marina and breakwater, to the beach in front of the Royal Brighton Yacht Club.
The pier, breakwater and the walkways provide unrivalled spectator viewing. Music and food stalls will be provided on the lawns adjoining the pier and baths.
The open water swims comprise male and female age divisions and an Open Division (any age can enter).
Swimmers will receive a colour-coded swim cap and a gear bag containing sunscreen and a sports bar. At the finish, swimmers will receive a Bulk Nutrients sports drink or water, fruit and Bulla frozen yoghurt.
The first 1,000 entrants will also receive a Kieser Great Australia Day Swim T Shirt.
