Get in on this classic Southern California tradition! Start the annual Imperial Beach Mayor’s Pier Swim & Paddle event with a 3K beach walk/run, and then swim or paddle around the Imperial Beach Pier with Mayor Dedina! (Conditions permitting) Strong ocean swimming or paddling experience is recommended to participate. The swim is approximately 1,000 yards. If you want to do the 3K walk/run, but don’t want to get in the ocean, that’s ok too!
