River Moy Weekend: River Moy Swim – Saturday, July 8

Saturday, July 8, 2023
Race starts at 10am sharp from opposite St Muredach’s Cathedral

The annual River Moy Swim will take place on 8th July 2023 during Ballina Salmon Festival, and for Ballina 2023, we are looking for 300 participants to mark the 300th anniversary of the town!

There are two adult swim challenges to choose from:

• 600m (finishing at Bachelor’s Walk)
• 2.5km (finishing at the Quay)

There is also a youth race with a distance of 600m.

This forgiving swim offers a fantastic opportunity to experience a competitive race in the scenic surrounds of the Ballina along the Wild Atlantic Way, while supported in open water, so sign up today. This is a competitive and participative event.
