18km Fiji Swim – Sofitel Fiji to Beachcomber Island Relay
12/08/2010
Place of event: Sofitel Fiji & Beachomber
The relay starts from the beach at the Sofitel Fiji Resort and Spa on Denarau Island and finishes 18km later on Beachcomber Island. It's a pretty good feeling arriving on Beachcomber to see the faces of everyone as they realise they have just swum from the mainland. Swimmers take to the course either as teams of five, duo or solo. With each team/duo/solo swimmer accompanied by a boat and kayak for the distance.
