such a fun, well organised event. well ran swim, gorgeous and flat bike route, run route means you get to see spectators a lot but be prepared for some stairs & a small hill on every loop. But overall thoroughly enjoyed and would do again!

Great event. My first triathlon and it seemed very well organised to me. Plenty of staff to advise you, help you and guide you. Clear signage and facilities. Recommend :-)

I did the Sprint Tri on May 4th, 2025. The whole thing was well organised, slick and efficient. Registration was quick, course and transitions were easy to navigate. Plenty of space in the lanes for the swim, bike course was quick with smooth roads (you could be really lucky or unlucky on a few roundabouts though) and run course was good too. Good marshalls and supporters with friendly competitors. All in all, spot on! Thanks!

Great race. I did the Double Sprint (750m Swim 45K Cycle 13K Run). Well set up and organised. In the water at 8am sharp, transition was easy to navigate. Guidance along the route was very good and some shouts of support from volunteers and locals helped me along! Also beautiful cycle route and got lucky with the weather.
