  Interested in sponsoring or donating to the 2026 Beaufort River Swim, please contact Perri Flaherty at p.flaherty@wardleflamilyymca.org or (843) 379-1365.

  Swim Race Course: Our 3.2 mile course is the unique estuary called the Beaufort River, starting at the Safe Harbor Port Royal Landing Marina, winding around the curve, and finishing at the day dock, adjacent to the Beaufort Waterfront Park, with spectators watching the finish line. The course is approximately 3.2 miles swimming with the tide. The water temp is mild to warm, usually mid 70's. The surface wave conditions range from calm to choppy at times depending upon the weather. Our 1 mile course follows this same path, but begins at the Beaufort Memorial Hospital Dock. Both swims finish at the same location.

  Packet Pick-Up: Race bags will be available for pick up on Friday, June 5th at the YMCA at Port Royal from 3:00pm-7:00pm (1801 Richmond Ave, Port Royal, SC 29935) or day of race at the Downtown Marina during check-in. See details in email sent out prior to race day.

  ​

  Race Day: Meet at the Downtown Safe Harbor Beaufort Marina (1006 Bay Street, Beaufort, SC 29902) starting at 6:00 am. This is the end point for both swims as well as the staging area for swim/run events. Both swims require all swimmers to check in prior to boarding the buses. Swimmers should NOT meet at the starting point. YMCA staff will transport swimmers via bus to their respective starting points (Safe Harbor Port Royal Marina for the 3.2-Mile swimmers and the Beaufort Memorial Hospital dock for the 1-Mile swimmers). YMCA staff will bring your numbered race bag back to the downtown marina where swimmers can retrieve it after the race (please do not leave valuables in your race bag).

  All 3.2 Mile Race entrants must be checked-in by 7:15am. Check in begins at 6:00am. Please allow at least 15 minutes to check-in on race day! Even if you have already picked up your race bag, you must check-in on race day to receive your chip timer and body markings. You must wear the assigned swim cap in your race bag. Last bus for 3.2-mile swimmers leaves the downtown Beaufort Marina parking lot at 8:30am.

  Check in for the 1 Mile Swim starts at 6:30am. Please allow at least 15 minutes to check-in on race day! Even if you have already picked up your race bag, you must check-in on race day to receive your chip timer and body markings. You must wear the assigned swim cap in your race bag. Last bus for 1 Mile swimmers leaves the downtown Beaufort Marina parking lot at 9:00am.

  5K Run: Please note that the race course will be altered this year due to the closure of the waterfront area. You can sprint, you can jog, or you can walk this 5K and enjoy the scenery. Due to renovations of the waterfront park, the route will be slightly different than in previous years. You will leave the parking area along the brick path behind the shops and run along it until you reach the Woods Memorial swing bridge, cross the bridge and turn right down Meridian Road, turn around at the marked turn station and return the way you came. The race will require runners to exit the transition zone over to the brick path directly behind the buildings. Runners will return the same way they came finishing the race under the arch in the parking lot. Please note that due to the nature of this race, Woods Memorial Bridge is not closed down and runners will be on the sidewalk. There is a small chance the bridge can open during this time, and runners will be required to stop.

  Note that there is NO same day registration –registration ends Wednesday June 3, 2026 at 8:00pm EST.
