NAC VA’A CALIFORNIA RACE #3

Type: Va'a
Tagged: CALIFORNIA, Newport aquatic center, USA
Date: 7th March 2026
Website: https://newportaquaticcenter.com/nac-vaa-california-2026/

The grand finale of the V1 Series,  a true test of endurance, grit, and ocean skill. This 21-mile marathon is designed for experienced V1 paddlers ready to take on the full distance and challenge themselves against both the elements and the competition.

We’re aiming for a Long Beach to Newport course, but final details will be determined closer to race day based on wind and ocean conditions. Expect a demanding open-water route that rewards preparation, focus, and resilience.

This race is not intended for novice paddlers, it’s built to challenge and celebrate those who bring dedication, skill, and heart to the water. 🏁

At the finish, we’ll celebrate the season with series awards, the V1 Heavyweight Belts, and a well-earned post-race lunch. Everyone’s invited to stick around, relax, and toast to another incredible year of V1 racing. 🌊🥇
