Trip Report: Swimmers met at the end of the Long Beach parking @ 7:00 to meet boats. Boats transported swimmers to start location. This year we started off of a secluded beach on the west side of North Haven. Swim started at 7:25 AM. Tide was flooding into Noyac and Little Peconic Bay. High tide was at 9:34 AM. Wind was 6 kts out of the N. Swimmers started together and then quickly broke into (2) separate groups.

This years route put swimmers into the thick of the bay early on with average depths ranging from 25-40 ft throughout the swim. The front group of swimmers completed the 3 mile crossing at 9:00 AM with the trail group finishing at 9:45 AM. Another one in the books!

Additional Details: This was the first Noyac Bay Swim Crossing completed by an entirely female group.

*The ‘Annual Noyac Bay Swim’ takes place every year on the Tuesday after Labor Day. See you next year.
