Hermanus Whale Festival Old Harbour Open Water Swim Update 2013

Under strict supervision of the Hermanus NSRI, some 200 swimmers enjoyed the third annual Hermanus Old Harbour Open Water Swim. Following some treacherous weather the last couple of weeks the swimmers took part in challenges of 300 m, 750 m and 1,500 m. Thousands of spectators packed the cliff tops, enjoying the outing to Hermanus and watch how the swimmers juggle for position.
