From the Organizer
We are excited to announce that the 9th Annual Redondo Beach Swim the Avenues is returning to the coastal waters of Redondo Beach, California. The event date is September 13th, 2026. There will be a 1.2-mile ocean swim as well as a half mile ocean swim. There will be a wet-suit and non-wet suit category. In honor and remembrance of former Redondo Beach Mayor Bill Brand a portion of proceeds will benefit South Bay Park Land Conservancy.
Swim the Avenues is delighted to become a part of the Southern Pacific Masters Swimming Open Water Series. If you are registered to USMS/SPMS, you are eligible to earn points for your race. Be sure to check USMS on your entry. At the end of the season, a high point winner will be awarded. See the SPMS website for details!

About This Sport
Endurance Grid is here to help you understand the sport, decide if it's the right fit, and learn how to prepare. For course distances, logistics, and race-day specifics, always defer to the race organizer's event page.
Swimming events drop you into something that demands navigation, feel, and focus all at once. It's a sport that rewards the quietly competitive — the ones who do the work in the water before anyone's watching.
Open water races from 1 mile to marathon distance. Just you, the water, and whatever you've got left.
