Dive into 2026! New Distances, Same Intimate Spirit.
The Sunshine Open Water Swim Series is back with two stunning dates:
🌊 March 6, 2027 - Pass-a-Grill Beach
🌊 May 15, 2027 - Pass-a-Grill Beach
We're growing thoughtfully!
Our staged start ensures a perfect day for all:
10K → 5K → 1.2 Mile → 1/2 Mile
I love creating these small, meaningful events where we push limits and share the open water spirit together. To keep that special atmosphere, participation will be capped at 150-200 swimmers.
Your support means the world. Interested in sponsoring this passion project? I'd love to chat! DM me or email me at owsleo11@gmail.com.
Thank you for being part of the journey. Let's make 2027 unforgettable!

From Endurance Grid
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.
