≡ Byron Bay Ocean Swim Classic An Anticipated Event
As much a social and community event as an athletic contest, participating in at least one Byron Bay Ocean Swim Classic has become a life goal for many swim enthusiasts. The contest is held each May to mark the start of the popular whale-watching period that runs from May to November. The course cuts a challenging 2.2 kms through the open waters of the bay. It pits swimmers against swell, current and each other as they kick and jostle in a sardine-like pack towards the finish line. Those that complete the course enjoy the feeling of a real accomplishment that raises funds for many community bodies connected with water activities.
