Port to Pub is 'a swim for all' from Fremantle to Rottnest Island, Western Australia

The Euroz Hartleys Port to Pub Swim with Hotel Rottnest is an open water swimming event designed to cater for the increased demand for long distance swimming and the interest from local, interstate and international swimmers to cross the iconic Rottnest Channel.

The event comprises two swim races over two distances from Leighton Beach to Rottnest Island.

The 20 km swim is open to solos, duos and teams of four and six. It begins at Leighton Beach outside Fremantle Surf Lifesaving Club and finishes at the Hotel Rottnest.

The 25 km ultra-marathon swim is open to qualified solo swimmers. It is the longest open water swim on offer in Australia and, and one of the longest in the Southern Hemisphere.

Spectators are welcomed to cheer on the swimmers as they arrive into Thomson Bay.

Where is the finish line?

The swimmers finish the race at South Thomson, in front of Hotel Rottnest. Spectators can watch the action from Thomson Bay, along the beach.
