Turks & Caicos Race for the Conch Eco-SeaSwim

Gliding through the turquoise waters of Grace Bay will be the most beautiful swim you have ever esxpereinced. We have three races at different distances, so something for everyone. This event appeals to swimmers new to open water racing, as well as experienced competitors out to win a conch trophy. By the way, everyone gets a hand carved conch medal around their neck when they run across the finish line. Finally, there is the cool beach vibe of swimmer comraderie--everyone enjoying the beach, the swim, and the island.
