Open Water Swim
Jun 07, 2026
From: 7:30 AM to 9:00 AM
Confident swimmers can start the morning in the Atlantic with a community open-water swim focused on wellness, safety and ocean stewardship. Presented by Blue Scholars Initiative as part of the World Ocean Celebration lineup, the Open Water Swim takes place Sunday, June 7 from 7:30 to 9 a.m. at 1st Street Beach on Miami Beach, near the blue lifeguard tower. The event is free with advance registration and a signed waiver.
Participants will swim alongside the Dolphins & Rainbows Swim Group, a welcoming community of capable swimmers who gather around shared time in the ocean. The morning is designed for swimmers who are comfortable in open water and want to connect with others while deepening their relationship with the sea.
Nearby parking is available at the municipal lots at 1 Ocean Drive and 710 1st Street, with metered street parking also available through ParkMobile. The area is served by the Miami Beach Trolley’s South Beach Loop.
