June 29 Independence Day 1-Mile Bay Swim. Don't be lulled into a false sense of security thinking the bay is flat and pool-like. Tidal currents always make this one tough. July 8 King of the Pier Swim. The race neither bans nor encourages the use of wetsuits, so you get an unfair mix of both.
Race has cash prizes and a great private beach party with burgers and beer afterwards.
July Jersey Classic Mile. One K. See July 29. July 14 Swim for the Dolphins. A one-mile swim in the ocean off Wildwood Crest benefits the Marine Mammal Stranding Center. A Saturday evening event.
