Material

It is mandatory to wear the official cap that you will receive in your swimmer’s bag.

The organisers will provide you with a bracelet with your number which you must wear on your wrist.

Optional. Although if you decide to swim without wetsuit you must state this when you register and prove that you are able to do so. The sea temperature in Barcelona at this time of year is between 16ºC and 18ºC.

It is compulsory to wear the chip on the ankle with a chip holder.

After Swim

Live the full experience: OW Swimming clinic, party and yoga.

On Saturday after the swim, join us for a drink and a relaxed chat while enjoying the views of a magical place, surrounded by the best atmosphere and listening to good music while watching the sunset.
And finally the climax: come and enjoy a great yoga session to relax, stretch and tone your body on Sunday morning.
