The Swim:
Participants will swim on a 1.5
Km (0.9 Mile) closed course located in the Virginia Key Bay.
Although it is still ocean waters, it's very calm due to it's
geographic location. No boats will be allowed in the area. We
forecast that water temperatures should be around 75 F, making
the use of wetsuits legal by USAT regulations. The final
temperature reading will be done 2 hours prior to the start.
Wave start information is now available below. Check out the
interactive swim course map bellow for more details.
