Cowes Classic - Cowes
The Cowes Classic weekend incorporating 500 metre swim and the 4km run will be held on Sunday 24h February at 2pm.
The Island Swim Classic (1.2km swim) will be held on the 23rd February at 2pm. The Phillip Island Swim Classic is a 1.2km current-assisted swim along the picturesque bay beach along the Cowes foreshore.
This is one of the few beaches in Victoria that faces north and is not affected by strong off-ocean winds. All age categories are catered for in the swim.
The Cowes Classic is a 500 metre current assisted swim around the Cowes Pier followed by a 4km run through the streets of Cowes. The event can be completed by individuals or as a team (one swimmer and one runner) which has proven very popular with families. Many people are good runners but do not feel confident competing in a swim leg, or vice versa, so it s a great opportunity to team up with a friend and take part.
