    The Oceanic Triathlon Series has announced that registration is now open for the first event of the season.

    The Short Course Triathlon, which starts and finishes at the Oceanic Hotel Resort and Spa, Khorfakkan will see participants take on the three traditional triathlon events along the UAE’s picturesque coastal town of Khorfakkan, just a short drive from Dubai.

    Triathletes of all abilities will compete in an 800m open water swim in the hotel’s natural bay,  then embark on a 30km bike ride through the rolling hills of Khorffakkan before coming to transition in the hotel grounds ahead of the final part of the triathlon.

    The run course then leads through the stunning Khorfakkan Corniche to the Oceanic Hotel where participants will cross the finish line.

    “With its picturesque location combined with an exciting, yet challenging course it’s set to be a great event.  Whether you are a seasoned triathlete or starting your triathlon journey this event has it all.”

    As part of the event, the Oceanic Hotel is offering participants an exclusive accommodation package for the weekend of the race. Triathletes will be able to stay on a half board basis from only AED 750.
