**NEW only for the January Tri!
Make a weekend of it in January and take part in our Predictor Aquathon on the Saturday after our January Tri. The Predictor Aquathon is a time trial with a twist! Swim 800m in the cool Indian Ocean before running 2.5km into the hills to cross the finish line at the Oceanic Hotel. Each athlete predicts his/hers own finish time before setting off. The closest prediction will receive the prize…. It’s not the fastest athlete, but the smartest athlete who will win the challenge!!

Make the Oceanic Triathlon a weekend to remember with great rates at the Oceanic Hotel - AED 550 for Thursday night or AED 1000 for the weekend (incl TAXES and VAT). Click on the link at the right and enter the Code: TRI2
