Dive into a quintessential South Devon triathlon at Dartmouth on Sunday, June 7, 2026, starting from the stunning, sheltered bay of Blackpool Sands. Your race begins with a crystal-clear sea swim, followed by a fast and scenic bike leg along what is considered Devon's flattest road, offering beautiful coastal views. The final run heads up the picturesque Blackpool Valley, following a gentle stream in a peaceful, traffic-free environment thanks to a clever two-transition course design. With strictly limited entries (capped at 320), this popular event sells out quickly, offering a boutique and impeccably organised experience for both Sprint and Standard distance athletes.
Enjoy a full weekend of sport, with additional 750m, 1500m, and 3K sea swims on Saturday evening and the unique opportunity to camp right on the beach. Every finisher receives a commemorative medal, and the event is renowned for its friendly atmosphere, professional chip timing, and stunning photography. Whether you're tackling the full Standard distance, the Sprint, or the Aquabike option, this is a truly special race that showcases the very best of the beautiful South Devon coastline. Secure your spot early for a triathlon experience you'll want to repeat year after year.
