The weekend’s extreme heat didn’t deter hundreds of swimmers from taking part in the annual Noosa Summer Swim event at Noosa Main Beach on Saturday and Sunday.
The new two-day program offers a range of ocean swims for every ability from juniors to the 5km swim where swimmers can push their limits.
The main event was the new marathon-distance Noosa 5.0 swim with Jessica Ashwood taking out first place in the women’s division with a time of 0:54:56.9 and Yasu Hirai taking out first place in the men’s division with a time of 0:51:38.2 to share in $1200 prize money.
The weekend of ocean swimming is presented by Milk & Co with swim ambassador Michael Klim always heading to Noosa Main Beach to catch all the action.
