Nearly thirty rowers in the II L’Escala Coastal Rowing
Today, Saturday 2nd March, the second edition of the L’Escala Coastal Rowing regatta took place in L’Escala, organised by the Catalan Rowing Federation and the Club Nàutic L’Escala with the collaboration of the General Secretariat for Sport of the Catalan Government, the Costa Brava Tourist Board, the Girona Provincial Council, Ports de la Generalitat and L’Escala Town Council.
Nearly thirty rowers from all over Catalonia took part in the event, which was the first Beach Sprint competition to be held in Catalonia. This discipline, which will be Olympic at the Los Angeles Olympic Games in 2028, proposes a 500-metre course between buoys, starting and finishing from the beach. This format makes for very agile races that can be easily followed from the shore, bringing the sport closer to the public.
