2500m Open Water Swim.

The 2500m Open Water event

The 2500m course is from the Middle Brighton Pier, anti-clockwise around a ‘box’ of buoys and then clockwise around the breakwater and Royal Brighton Yacht Club marina, finishing on the beach in front of the yacht club. See the course map below.

To allow boat access to the Yacht Club marina, all swimmers must pass the marina entrance (2,000 m from the start) by 10 am. Slow swimmers will be assisted back to the beach by the Lifesavers.

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 events comprise male and female age groups and an Open Divisions.

Swimmers will receive a colour-coded swim cap and an Aquashop gear bag containing Sunscreen and a sports bar. At the finish, swimmers will receive a Bulk Nutrients sports drink or water, fruit and frozen yoghurt.

The on-line entry price includes a raffle ticket for a travel and accommodation package to Bali and secondary prizes (total value $3,500), for the first 1,000 swimmers in the Open Water and intermediate Swim events.

The first 1,000 entrants will also receive a Swimland Great Australia Day Swim T Shirt
