About

The Murray Rose Malabar Magic ocean swim is held in the sheltered, wave-less, waters off Malabar Beach in Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs, only a 20-minutes drive from Sydney’s CBD.

Malabar Beach is a relatively protected beach with fairly calm waters, protected by rock shelves on either side.

Named after the great Australian Olympian Murray Rose, it is perhaps the most inclusive, family and charitable-friendly of all the ocean swims on the calendar. Open to swimmers of all abilities.

Swimmers will not only enjoy a beautiful swim but will be sharing the joy of swimming with children and young adults with a disability across the Rainbow Club network of social swimming clubs. Rainbow Club provides a social, safe and caring environment at over 75 clubs across NSW, QLD and the ACT. Your involvement will enable even more clubs to open in areas of need.

This event offers three different swim distances: a 1km ocean swim for 10 years and over, a 2.5km ocean swim for 13 years and over, and a 5km ocean swim for 13 years and over.

This ocean swim course is a classic 4-buoy rectangular course. Swimmers head straight out from the shore, keeping the buoys to their right as they make their way around clockwise before heading back to shore for the finish.

2.5km Ocean Swim

The swim is an out and back, long pentagon-shaped course. Swimmers will head straight out from the beach keeping the buoys to their right as they make their way around an apex, before heading back to shore.

Similar to the 2.5km course, this course is an out and back, long pentagon-shaped course. Swimmers head straight out from the beach keeping the buoys to their right as they make their way around an apex, before heading back to shore.Swimmers will complete two laps of the course, where as 2.5km participants will only complete one lap.All swimmers participating in the 5km ocean swim are required to finish within the allocated 150 minutes cut off time.
