Travesia Hogueras 2026

Travesía Hogueras is a short open-water swim in San Juan de Alicante, on Spain’s Alicante coast, held around the Hogueras season in early summer. The listed distance is about 2 km, with one timing listing giving it as 1,900 meters, so it is a compact sea swim rather than a long-distance crossing. The course starts and finishes at Avda. Niza nº1, placing the race by San Juan’s beachfront area. Event calendars and timing services list it under swimming or “travesía a nado,” even though one source labels it as running, and past listings show it already reaching its fifteenth edition.
