European open-water swimming has two main clusters in the calendar. A run of races falls across September and October, taking in coastal and lake venues from Gijón in northern Spain and Banyuls on the French Mediterranean coast to Voula and Vouliagmeni in Greece and Ghadira Bay in Malta. A second group of races sits in May and June, with events in Ibiza, the lakes of northern Italy around Lago d'Orta and Scanno in the Apennines, and the Adriatic shoreline at Cattolica in Emilia Romagna. The mix spans international series races, including XTERRA open-water events, alongside independent local swims. SportsPal pulls both into a single filterable calendar, so you can compare distances, locations and dates across the full season in one place rather than checking each organiser's site separately.
