International competition

Oceanman is an international open water swimming competition. Swims are performed in the most famous open reservoirs – rivers, lakes, seas, straits. The competition takes place in several distances: Oceanman (6-14 km), Half Oceanman (3.5-5 km), Popular (1-2 km). Oceanman series swims started for the first time in 2015. They were originally held in Spain, Italy. Now the launches are also held in Russia, Switzerland, Mexico, Ukraine, UAE, Malaysia, France, Thailand, Greece. Swimming in open water imposes completely different requirements for the training of swimmers than in the pool. However, the emotions and impressions that swimming in reservoirs, seas and oceans gives to participants cannot be compared with anything. For many swimming enthusiasts, open water starts are about learning your endurance and an exciting adventure in picturesque places.
