Barnegat Light Ocean Mile Swim

The Barnegat Light Ocean Swim, hosted by The Friends of Barnegat Light Beach Patrol, offers a challenging ocean race course with visible markers. Registration includes a backpack, cap, t-shirt, and timing chip. Separate heats accommodate different speeds, and top finishers receive awards for various age groups, fostering team competition among beach patrols and swim clubs. Post-race, participants enjoy refreshments, encouraged to bring refillable water bottles to minimize plastic waste. Reduced fees accommodate local lifeguards, and rules ensure fair play. This fundraiser supports the Barnegat Light Beach Patrol with no refunds, though registrations may credit future events if canceled.
