Description
The State Harbour Crossing is an open water swim in New Zealand that is part of the New Zealand Ocean Swim Series, a six-race ocean swim series that takes place on some of New Zealand’s most beautiful harbours and beaches.
The race has one course distance only – ‘I’m Going Long’ 2.8 km Ocean Swim that starts in Quinton Park, Bayswater and finishes on the northern side of Te Wero Island, Viaduct Harbour. This swim is for individuals with swimming experience and have trained to complete this event.
It is one of the World’s Top 100 Open Water Swims organized by Scott Rice.
Very competitive race where dozens of accomplished swimmers annually compete. Swimmers swim over beautiful coral beds and colorful marine life in a picturesque course.
