Transition Areas
There are four transition areas: Lake Padden, Fairhaven Park, Marine Park and Cornwall Beach. See details to help you find where you need to go. You can drop off your gear beginning at 9 AM, please pick up your equipment ASAP.

Here's how you get to the different areas: Google Maps.
Start/Finish Line
The Start/Finish line is at the Bellingham Farmers Market in front of Boundary Bay Brewery.
See Google Maps.
Lake Padden
Please park in the main parking lot near the Swim beach/bathhouse. To get to the transition area, walk your gear down the road near the tennis courts. See Google Maps.
Fairhaven Park
Just south of Fairhaven is Fairhaven Park. The transition area will be at the very back of the park, up near the community shelter. See Google Maps.
Marine Park
This is where the Ski to Sea race finishes. You'll launch your kayaks from the newly reclaimed beach. Please have your teammates help you put your boats in the water. See Google Maps.
Cornwall Beach
This is a little gem in Bellingham. It is now the property of the Port of Bellingham. It's at the Southern end of Cornwall Avenue. This is where the paddle leg ends and the TREK begins. Please help your teammates out of the water and store your boats on the grass. Then, once you've finished the race, get back and pick up your boats asap.
