    The Pacific Coast Triathlon invites athletes of all ages and abilities — from first-timers to seasoned competitors — to experience one of Southern California’s most scenic and celebrated races at the stunning Crystal Cove State Beach.

    Start your day with a refreshing open-water swim in the Pacific Ocean right at Crystal Cove State Beach. Full lifeguard support and typically comfortable wave conditions make this leg welcoming for every level. Choose the Sprint (½ mile / ~750 m) or Olympic (1,500 m).

    Next, tackle the bike on a fully closed, rolling course along the iconic Pacific Coast Highway. Enjoy sweeping ocean views as you ride two loops for the Sprint (12 miles) or four loops for the Olympic (40K / ~24.8 miles).

    The run winds along the gorgeous Crystal Cove Trail and paths, with panoramic ocean views on one side and Pacific Coast Highway on the other. You’ll pass through the historic beach cottages, and — when tides allow — enjoy a memorable stretch right along the sand before climbing back up for an unforgettable oceanfront finish. Sprint runners cover 3 miles; Olympic athletes run 6.2 miles (10K), with aid stations every mile.

    Additional race options include Sprint & Olympic Duathlon, Aquabike, Relay teams (male, female, or co-ed), and a 5K Beach and Trail Run.

    This USAT-sanctioned event is part of the popular OC Tri Series and proudly supports local non-profits. Every finisher receives a custom medal (plus official race shirt and other great swag). Expect a festive beachside atmosphere with post-race food, awards ceremony, vendor village, and plenty of cheering spectators.

    Whether you’re chasing a personal record or simply soaking in the beauty of the California coast, the Pacific Coast Triathlon delivers the perfect mix of challenge, scenery, and community.
