It’s been 90 years.

It’s time to bring back The Swim Across The Columbia - a classic event of the Astoria Regatta! 🌊Don't want to take the plunge into the Columbia River but still want to be part of the action? Join us for a splash-free adventure where you can run, skip, or dance across the finish line without ever getting wet!

Event Highlights:

  • Stay Dry Swim: Cross the finish line with style, but stay on dry land!

  • Free Drink & Swag: Every registration comes with a complimentary drink and some cool swag! (Kids can participate with parents in photos and the costume contest for free!)

  • Costume Contest: Show off your creativity! Dress up in your most imaginative outfit for a chance to win awesome prizes.

Whether you're an athlete or just looking for a unique way to spend a Sunday morning, this event is perfect for all ages. Kids are welcome! So grab your friends, put on your best costume, and join us for a day of fun and laughter!🏊‍♂️
