Triple Crown of Open Water Swimming
The Triple Crown of Open Water Swimming is an internationally renowned title. To get it, it is necessary to complete three long-distance swims: the English Channel, the Catalina Channel, and the circumnavigation of Manhattan.
Antonio Argüelles, double conqueror of the Triple Crown
FIRST MEXICAN TO COMPLETE IT
FIRST PERSON TO COMPLETE IT TWICE
CATALINA CHANNEL
CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES
“Catalina is so difficult mainly because of the mental part. There are sharks in those waters and usually nothing to see at night. Before the Triple Crown was established, only 173 people had completed the crossing in nearly 80 years.”
THE ENGLISH CHANNEL
GREAT BRITAIN / FRANCE
“The English Channel is the Everest of open water swimming—a stretch of water with multiple challenges in which weather conditions can change without notice. In 1999 it took me 18 hours and 19 minutes to cross it.”
CATALINA CHANNEL
CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES
“Catalina is so difficult mainly because of the mental part. There are sharks in those waters and usually nothing to see at night. Before the Triple Crown was established, only 173 people had completed the crossing in nearly 80 years.”
