Day 1
On the Friday there is an opportunity to a special coaching clinic and acclimatisation swim in the Hudson River itself. Our guides will analyse your stroke and offer advice just in time for the big race. There will also be a drill sessions to polish up your technique.

This is a chance to meet your fellow swimmers, event staff and receive further details of the event.

Day 2
The Little Red Lighthouse Swim

A 10.2Km swim of the Hudson River. The course will introduce you to new sights and experiences along the Hudson. You can either race to win it or just go along at your own pace and enjoy swimming in the Hudson River.

Awards are scheduled to be presented approximately 20 minutes after the last swimmer exits the water. And there are medals for all participants too.

Day 3
Statue of Liberty Swim

This swim takes place near Ellis Island in Upper Bay. It’s an opportunity to stretch your arms after the excesses of the day before. You will receive a copy of a photo of yourself swimming in front of the Statue of Liberty.

Race Caveat

In the event of bad weather and the swim being cancelled, there are no reserve days available but there is an opportunity for an alternate coastal swim route.

Marine Life Caveat

Swim Event Type: Swimming in the sea is a fantastic experience, but you need to be aware of potential problems. Marine life such as jellyfish, sea urchins and coral could be present on some of the swims, but we will work on minimising. If stung by jellyfish you can normally carry on swimming. However if you do have a problem we can treat you on one of the escort boats. You should contact us prior to booking if you suffer from Anaphylaxis. You should seek medical attention if you develop any infection following contact with the above.

Swimming Caveat

For obvious safety reasons we rely on decent weather conditions when carrying out any swims. As a consequence, open water swimming does require an inherent degree of on-trip flexibility, so required changes in the planned itinerary will not be uncommon and will undoubtedly add to the uniqueness of each tour.
