Why this event?

Swim with some of WA’s best ocean swimmers in relay style.

WA’s Big Ocean Relay is the ultimate team swim: high energy, big surf buzz, and coastal camaraderie turned all the way up. Held on the sun-soaked sands of North Cottesloe Beach, this event brings together swimmers of all ages and abilities for a fast-paced, fun-filled relay that celebrates everything we love about ocean swimming, team spirit, salty sprints, and that unbeatable WA vibe.

It’s all about fast legs, slick transitions, and the joy of doing it with your crew. Whether you’re teaming up with mates, club members, or your workplace swim squad, this is your chance to tag, cheer, splash, and sprint your way through a buzzing beachside course. The format keeps things dynamic and inclusive, with teams rotating swimmers in and out of the water while the crowd builds energy from the sand.

Expect plenty of laughs, a few friendly rivalries, and a whole lot of community spirit. You’ll be diving into Cott’s iconic turquoise waters, racing against the clock and each other, and finishing it off with a beachside celebration that’s as fun as the swim itself.

With a perfect blend of social energy and racing edge, the Big Ocean Relay is the kind of event that reminds you why we love this sport, because it’s not just about the swim, it’s about the people you do it with. Bring your sunscreen, your team colours, and your best game face, this one’s going to be a blast.

What's on offer

2km (4x500m) Ocean Swim
  • years
Short, sharp, and full of splashy action, the 2km relay is made up of four 500m legs, with each swimmer completing one lap of the rectangular course off North Cottesloe Beach. Starting from the changeover zone, swimmers head straight out, turn north along the back of the course, then return to shore for the next tag. It’s fast, fun, and ideal for all skill levels, perfect for mates, families, or club teams keen to test their speed in a team setting.
4km (4x1km) Ocean Swim
  • years
Ready to go the distance? The 4km relay sees each team member swim two full laps of the 500m course, clocking up 1km each. With clear sightlines, a beach-based changeover zone, and plenty of cheers from the shoreline, this event is perfect for more experienced swimmers who want to push the pace as a team. Expect high energy, slick transitions, and a finish line buzz you won’t forget.
