At the site where Blackie Reasor caught his 1975 world-record Hammerhead shark, 14 feet 4 inches long and 703 lbs, we have an open-water swim in the Atlantic Ocean along beautiful Jacksonville Beach, finishing just north of the iconic Jax Beach Lifeguard Station.

There are three distances to choose from again this year. The 1k swim is perfect for someone just starting open water swimming. The 2k is the traditional 1.25-mile swim that has been a standard all these years. We will again offer the 5k swim. All swimmers will receive a finisher medal, with the 5k medal differing slightly.

As always, there will be support kayaks and lifeguards along the way.

This event supports the Volunteer Life Saving Corps and is supported by the City of Jax Beach.

I will provide a training program, register you for the swim, pick you up (locally), and swim with you.
