Featured Event

   2021 Point to La Pointe Open Water Swim 

August 7th, 2021
Swimming to Madeline Island has been a storied feat around the Bayfield area for decades. Starting as a community swim for 24 people in 2006, the Point to La Pointe has grown into a thriving race that sells out annually at 500 swimmers.   

The course is a straight 2.1 mile swim on Lake Superior from Bayfield to Madeline Island. Swimmers have encountered all of Lake Superior's moods over the years, from calm, flat water to strong crosswinds with 2 foot waves. This event is registered with and approved by the US Coast Guard.
