The crossings from Alcatraz are recommended for those swimmers who have either taken the Water World Swim Alcatraz Swim Clinic or who feel confident and have had prior experience swimming in the open water.
Our crossings are usually limited to eight (8) swimmers and are accompanied by three or more of our coaches. Our crossings are supported by the best Water World Swim pilots. After a brief, but thorough discussion of the conditions of the bay during your crossing we will jump from our boat, and swim toward our destination across the bay. Swimmers will be divided in two or three groups of slow, medium and competitive levels in which are accompanied by our coaches. This is surely an exciting and thrilling swim.
Make no mistake, your first Alcatraz crossing will be an experience you will never forget and one you can truly feel proud of. On race day your crossing will prove to be the most valuable part of your swim training.
Members of Water World Swim and other recognized tri groups will receive a 10% discount. All crossings are permitted by the San Francisco Coast Guard and will receive vessel traffic clearance for the time you will be swimming.
