About the Event

On February 27, 2027, runners and swimmers will converge on Cowes for the COWES CLASSIC, part of the prestigious Bass Coast Series. This dynamic race features a thrilling 500-meter beach swim followed by a challenging 4-kilometer road run through scenic coastal paths. Participants will start their day with an invigorating dip in the crisp waters off Woolamai Beach before transitioning to the pavement for the spirited run along Phillip Island's picturesque shoreline. The event not only promises a competitive and exhilarating experience but also serves as a major fundraiser for local community sporting clubs, including the Phillip Island Football and Netball Club and the Woolamai Beach Surf Life Saving Club, supporting volunteer patrols that safeguard swimmers throughout the season.
The vibrant atmosphere of Cowes complements this unique race day, with spectators cheering on participants as they push their limits in both water and land. Join us for a morning filled with camaraderie and community spirit, all while contributing to important local causes.
