The Buzzards Bay Swim is a one-of-a-kind scenic point-to-point open water swim taking place in Onset this year due to rainfall.

Assisted by a robust safety patrol, swimmers navigate 1.2 miles from Shell Point Beach to Onset Bay Center. At the thrilling finish, swimmers are welcomed with a beach party featuring a live steel drum band, pancakes cooked to order, gourmet coffee, and local beer!

The Buzzards Bay Swim is an open water swim benefiting the Buzzards Bay Coalition, a nonprofit that works to protect clean water in our region. $30 registration fee and $300 fundraising minimum ($150 for youth) includes parking, shuttle service, bag check, swim cap, chip timing, snacks, breakfast, beverages, event t-shirt, live music, awards, prizes, and a custom made bronze finisher’s medal. Qualifications apply. Special rates available for youth teams and lifeguards.
