Never tried adventure racing, but always wanted to? Why not start with the most
beautiful adventure race in California? Showcased against the dramatic backdrop of the California Coast and the intensity
of the Pacific Ocean, the Ocean Blue Adventure Race is staged near the communities of Half Moon Bay and El Granada in the
Pillar Point Harbor area. Home of the infamous Mavericks surf break which boasts the toughest surf contest in the world, kayaking
the Pacific in this area is exhilarating. But fear not, the giant waves of Mavericks only come out of hiding in the winter
months. You’ll have the experience of paddling with Maverick’s little sisters- calmer, gentler, summer waves.
Biking and running amongst Manzanita and eucalyptus trees, sandy beaches and bluff tops with outstanding ocean views, this
is truly the most beautiful adventure racing experience. Event
