Nuotiamo nell'Oasi 2025

Om loppet

Swimming in the Gulf of Trieste is more than just a sport; it is an immersive experience that blends the raw beauty of the Adriatic Sea with a powerful mission of solidarity. 'Nuotiamo nell'Oasi' is the flagship event organized by the Abbracciamoli APS association, a collective committed to supporting patients recovering from leukemia. Every stroke taken in these waters carries the weight of a larger, noble purpose, making the finish line feel like a collective victory for the entire community.

Trieste is a city with a unique soul, where Central European elegance meets the blue expanse of the sea. The event takes place in a setting defined by the striking contrast between the rugged limestone coast and the deep, crystalline waters of the Gulf. Participants have the rare privilege of swimming past the iconic Miramare Castle, a 19th-century marvel perched on a rocky promontory that seems to float above the waves. The history of the race is deeply rooted in the local tradition of sea-loving citizens who turn this annual appointment into a celebration of life and resilience.

Whether you are a seasoned endurance athlete tackling the 9km challenge or a passionate swimmer testing your limits on the 3.5km course, you will find yourself surrounded by a warm, inclusive, and highly motivated community. The event attracts swimmers from all over Italy and beyond, all united by the desire to push their boundaries while contributing to a cause that truly matters. Organizationally, the event is praised for its precision and the heartfelt atmosphere created by the volunteers of Abbracciamoli. Beyond the competition, the event is a fantastic opportunity for athletes to bring their families along, enjoying the unique charm of Trieste.
