NYC Oyster Swim

MAKING WAVES FOR CLEAN WATER. Highlighting water Quality and efforts to make a difference Join us for the NYC Oyster Swim as we take on the waters surrounding Governors Island, NYC to raise awareness of local water quality and the work being done to address it. The swim will start from the water, with an epic view of lower Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty. Swimmers will proceed along the shoreline, ending near the Pier 101 home of Billion Oyster Project – an organization dedicated to improving NYC’s waterways through oyster seeding and stewardship of the Community Water Quality Testing Program. NOTE: This is an advanced open water swim, for experienced open water swimmers only.
