About this race
Welcome to the first annual Baltimore Harbor 1-Mile Swim!
This event, and the newly founded nonprofit organization, Baltimore Open Water Swimmers (BOWS) marks an exciting beginning for Baltimore! Founded in 2026, Baltimore Open Water Swimmers (BOWS) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to fostering an inclusive community through the sport of open water swimming and advocating for healthy and accessible waterways for everyone.
Celebrating the ongoing efforts to improve the health of our Patapsco River and Baltimore's Harbor, this 1-mile swim will make history as the first swim of this scale in Baltimore’s Harbor in decades! BOWS and this event will continue to put Baltimore on the map for the sport of open water swimming and secure Baltimore as a global leader in the urban swimming movement.
The inaugural Baltimore Harbor Swim, will also support a vital cause: youth swim education and water safety for all. Proceeds from the Baltimore Harbor Swim will go to support Baltimore City’s Recreation & Parks’ Learn to Swim programs! Through this event, we aim to highlight the significant impact swimming education can have in a child’s life, building confidence and connection to the water. Swimming is not only a life skill, but a life long sport you can join anytime.
