Come join us for the ultimate Bay Area open water swim! This event is not a race, just a friendly swim in an exciting, safe, and comfortable environment. It is a great opportunity for those training for similar events, including the Escape from Alcatraz Triathlon, or people who just want an unforgettable, world famous swimming experience!
- Approximately 2.5 mile swim from Alcatraz Island to Pier 1 1/2, next to the historic Ferry Building in San Francisco. This swim is for relatively strong swimmers. You should be able to do this distance in a pool (140 lengths of a 25 yard pool) or during our regular group open water swims in Berkeley without stopping. Feel free to contact us if you're not sure if you are up for it.
- Only $245 per event. There is a $50 late registration fee within one month of the event.
- In addition to the swim itself, registration includes an event t-shirt and a yellow silicone Alcatraz swim cap.
- All Alcatraz swims will take place in the morning, usually meeting in SF between 5 and 8am. The time listed on the registration page is the preliminary check-in time, which is usually one to two hours before the swim start. Registered swimmers will receive an email prior to the event with finalized details and swimmers will be asked to attend an online briefing several days before the swim.
