The Point Leo Swim Classic is a 1,200-metre open water swim that has been held for over 25 years.

Usually held on Boxing Day each year, it’s a community event that takes the form of a swimming/running ‘festival’ incorporating a number of other support events, attracting swimmers and runners of different ages and abilities.

The events available are:

  • 1.2km Point Leo Swim Classic
  • Balnarring & District Community Bank 2.5 km Swim Challenge
  • 400m Nipper/Novice Swim
  • 4km Honeysuckle run

What’s happening in 2020?

In 2020, due to currently known Government and Life Saving Victoria COVID-19 restrictions, we are unable to plan to hold a physical public event at Point Leo beach on Boxing Day, as per previous years.

We are really disappointed that our beautiful beach will not be filled with our keen Point Leo Swim Classic swimmers and runners this year and we will miss your enthusiasm, energy and the way you all light up our event!

However, we still want people: to keep fit, keep up their swimming and keep having fun so, instead, for the first time we are organising a Point Leo ‘Virtual’ Swim Classic.

Wherever you live, you can still be involved in the Point Leo ‘Virtual’ Swim Classic!

It’s all about getting involved this year, despite being apart, and making the most of your local environment whilst participating in our great event – virtually!

We look forward to you participating in another one of Point Leo SLSC’s wonderful community events this season.

Thanks to our sponsor Bluegum – there will be plenty of spot prizes awarded for each swim and run event. Check out the spot prize winners posted on the Point Leo website after 4th January 2021.
