Due to the extreme onshore winds of the past few days, the sea swims at Hobie Beach in Port Elizabeth have been cancelled for today.
The running events will still take place and swimmers are welcome to join in and take a jog along the beachfront and enjoy the sunshine.
The Easterly and North Easterly winds have created highly unfavourable swim conditions and although the ocean swimmers will always be disappointed when a swim is cancelled, the Ocean Racing Series organisers have made the right call in the circumstances.
