Summer fun Newport, Oceanside, San Clemente…
…just to name a few. This weekend will see some traditional swims near the HQ of Open Water Source and the Daily News of Open Water Swimming. The annual Newport Pier to Pier Swim is a 2 miler that will kick off at 10AM at the Balboa Pier. There’s also “The Greatest Show on Surf” on both Saturday and Sunday at 35th Annual San Clemente’s Ocean Festival. And if that wasn’t enough, there’s some great racing to be had down in Oceanside California at the RSP race.
What’s up with open water swimming in your area? Drop in to the Open Water Source Facebook group and let us know. Maybe we’ll feature a story about you? (we really want to by the way!)
See you in the water and on the shore
