The start and finish point is in the car park opposite Zorbas by The Sea.

130 athletes are expected at the race this year, including more than 60 international participants from countries such as Greece, Poland, England, France, Spain and others.

The event, in addition to highlighting the beauty of the Cypriot nature and sporting excellence, managed for another year to attract athletes from abroad and to contribute to the development and promotion of sports tourism in the Protaras area.

What is Swimrun?

Swimrun is a unique race that combines swimming in the sea and running in a natural landscape. Athletes are challenged to alternate between running and swimming without breaks, pushing themselves through challenging courses. It is a race that requires physical endurance and mental strength.

After the completion of the race, awards will be made for the first three places in the Men's and Women's categories for each distance.

It is worth noting that the Protaras SwimRun was the first SwimRun in the eastern Mediterranean and is still the only one in the wider region.
