The Mighty Grynner course is situated on one of the calmest coasts in Barbados, situated a stone’s throw out of the capital, Bridgetown. The crystal clear Caribbean Sea gives triathletes the opportunity to view beautiful coral reefs while swimming and the chance to spot a turtle, very likely.

The Bike & Run courses are separate and are on smooth tarmac with almost zero elevation except for a small incline at the north turn on the Bike.

Barbados also boasts some of the best weather conditions in the world with an average yearly temperature of 28 degrees C and water temperature of 26 degrees C at race time.  Wetsuits are never required.

This beautiful island provides the perfect opportunity for competitors and non-competing partners and families to stay and enjoy the relaxed environment and attractions.
