OCEANMAN

Welcome to the OCEANMAN World Final in the breathtaking destination of Miches, Dominican Republic — where elite open water swimming meets one of the most spectacular tropical destinations in the Caribbean. This World Final is more than a race. It is a full experience combining sport, nature, culture, adventure, and celebration with athletes from all over the world. Prepare yourself for crystal-clear waters, white sand beaches, unforgettable sunsets, Dominican hospitality, and the unique OCEANMAN atmosphere.

Miches is located on the northeast coast of the Dominican Republic and has rapidly become one of the Caribbean’s most exciting emerging destinations.

The recommended airport for athletes and companions attending the World Final is Punta Cana International Airport (PUJ), which serves as the main international gateway to the area. From the airport, the estimated travel time to Miches is approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes, while Uvero Alto can be reached in about 45 minutes.

The World Final week is set to be a high-energy blend of elite competition
and community celebration, kicking off with athlete registration and a formal
Welcome Dinner. Participants will have ample time to prep through official training sessions, course familiarization, and technical meetings, while spectators can explore the expo and sponsor village. The festivities span from a grand opening ceremony and various social gatherings to dedicated kids’ activities, all building up to the main race competitions.

The Dominican Republic offers tropical weather year-round, with expected conditions during event week including air temperatures between 26°C and 32°C, water temperatures around 27°C to 29°C, high humidity, and strong sun exposure. Athletes are advised to stay continuously hydrated, use reef-safe sunscreen, wear sunglasses and hats, avoid excessive sun before race day, and allow 2–3 days to acclimatize before competing.

Montaña Redonda: Experience 360° views of mountains, lagoons, and the ocean at this iconic destination.

La Media Luna: Relax at this natural sandbank, where shallow turquoise waters create the perfect setting for snorkeling, paddleboarding, and boat excursions.
