Double Header Challenge #2: Pier-to-Pier 2 Mile Ocean Swim Race

The Dwight Crum Pier-to-Pier Swim is one of the most popular long distance swims in the United States. In 2024, 1350 swimmers completed this grueling two-mile course. Swimmers enter the water on the south side of the 10th Street Lifeguard Tower (South of the Hermosa Beach Pier). They swim round the Pier, parallel to shore then round the Manhattan Beach Pier and finish on the beach.

Any contestant who did not complete the 2024 Pier-to-Pier swim must register for the swim on-line and then pass a 500-meter “check out” swim.

2024 Dwight Crum Pier-to-Pier Swim finishers are exempt from “check out”. The swim will again be conducted in 3 heats. The first heat, male swimsuit, will start at 9:00 am. The second heat, female swimsuit & wetsuit, will start at 9:05 am. The third heat, male wetsuit, will start at 9:10 am.

Registration for all swimmers must be done on-line…
