3rd Douro Valley – São João da Pesqueira Open Water 2026

The Douro Valley – São João da Pesqueira Open Water is an open-water swimming event held in São João da Pesqueira, located in Portugal’s Viseu district. This event is part of the Douro Valley series and features two race distances: 1.5 km and 3 km. The start is in São João da Pesqueira, placing the swim within one of the Douro Valley’s inland wine-country towns, not at a coastal resort. This is the third running of the event, marking it as a relatively new addition to the series.
