XXIX Travesía a Nado Ría de Ares 2026

The XXIX Travesía a Nado Ría de Ares is an open-water swim held in July in Ares, beginning at the Rampla Grande de Ares. The event focuses on shorter distances within the bay, rather than a marathon swim. It includes a 100 m race for all ages, 400 m races for the youngest and oldest participants, and 1 km races for most age groups. The entry list is organized by birth year, ranging from swimmers born in 1960 or earlier to children born in 2014 or later. Categories B through H represent two-year bands for youth and wider bands for adults, accommodating children, masters swimmers, club swimmers, and casual participants. The name indicates this is the 29th edition. Registration is open for all listed categories. Organizer contact is available by phone, and the published refund policy states that refunds are not provided.
