• Description: The TikiSwim consists of two distances, 2.4 miles and 1.2 miles.
  The 2.4 mile course is a mass beach start from the south side of the Oceanside Pier @ 7:30. Swimmers swim straight out the first buoy where they make a right turn and head straight for the mouth of the Oceanside Harbor. The course is marked with numerous buoys. Once inside the Oceanside Harbor, swimmers can swim as close as they would like,on their right shoulder, to the harbor structures such as the jettys and docks. It is the swim equivalent to "cutting the corners". The finish line is located at the top of the boat launch ramps.
  The 1.2 mile course is also a mass beach start @ 8:00. The start is directly across from the harbor finish line, so this course is an exxagerated "U-turn". The 1.2 mile swimmers, will swim straight out and merge with the 2.4 mile swimmers at the first buoy. From that point on, the courses are identical.
  Once at the finish there are two finishing chutes. One for all wetsuit swimmers and one for all traditional swimmers.
