Description

Poverty To Cove 2.4 Mile Swim

The fastest point-to-point 2.4 mile swim on the east coast. This has always been a 'rite of passage' for local swimmers "in the know," and now we've made it official!

Swimmers will swim around the southernmost point of New Jersey WITH THE CURRENT!

Join us in Victorian Cape May for an instant classic!
