On June 22, a fleet of 200 paddlers will depart Bimini, Bahamas, for an 80-mile trek across the Atlantic Ocean to Lake Worth Beach during The Crossing for Cystic Fibrosis, benefiting Piper’s Angels Foundation. Onlookers will spy a sea of paddleboarders, canoers, and kayakers during the event’s twelfth iteration, which supports the families of those suffering from cystic fibrosis. Paddlers will arrive in Bimini June 19 before setting out at midnight June 21.
Participants will paddle all night through the dark, hitting Lake Worth Beach the following day. For the first time, folks seeking a shorter paddle can participate in the 32-mile Rendezvous Race. Those paddlers will meet in the ocean at daybreak June 22 to paddle to the Lake Worth Beach landing spot. This sprint-style Crossing is open to solo paddlers, as well as two- and four-person relay teams.
