The San Remo Channel Challenge

The San Remo Channel Challenge is a swim run event held on Saturday 30st January 20010 at 12pm.
The swim is a distance of 500 meters starting across the Channel at the Fishing Village of San Remo on the main land of South Gippsland and in the Shire of Bass Coast.
Due to the strong tide flow through the Channel the swim can only take place on the slack water of the appropriate high tide, the swim finish comes ashore at Newhaven Phillip Island on north side of the Channel.
Slack water of the high tide lasts approximately fifteen minutes in which time 500 plus competitors must complete the swim.
The Run starts in the transition area at Newhaven on Phillip Island after the competitors change into their running shoes on completing the swim leg. The 2.5 kilometre run back up over the picturesque Phillip Island Bridge to the township of San Remo spreads the runners out, and makes a spectacular sprint to the finish line in the main street with large crowds urging the runners on.
