The Crossing

$100 to Register - 

The Cape 2 Cape Crossing is roughly 19 miles as the seagull flies. The paddlers will launch off of the beautiful beach behind the Sunset Beach Inn in Cape Henry Va. After paddling under the Chesapeake Bay Bridge and around Fisherman’s Island it will be a straight shot to the Cape Henry Light where the contestants will be challenged with open ocean conditions and will cross two major shipping channels. Once at Cape Henry Light, they will round a buoy and proceed to the finish line at the First Landing State Park. This event will challenge the very best paddlers in the world.

ENTRY REQUIREMENTS

The race director may refuse entry to any contestant who cannot prove they are capable of paddling 10miles in 2 hours. Any paddler still in the water 5 hours after the race start will be picked up by an escort boat (provided by Cape 2 Cape) and brought to the finish line.

DIVISIONS

The race will be open to SUP Paddlers and Prone Paddlers. Both disciplines will have individual men's and women's stock and unlimited classes.
