The course is approximately 3.2 miles swimming with the tide. The water temp is mild to warm\, usually mid 70’s.

Both swims finish at the same location. \n  \nPacket Pick-Up: Race bags will be available for pick up on Friday\, June 5th at the YMCA at Port Royal from 3:00pm-7:00pm (1801 Richmond Ave\, Port Royal\, SC 29935) or day of race at the Downtown Marina during check-in.
