The Ocean Race

Since 1973, The Ocean Race has been the toughest test of a team in sport. Competition is in our DNA. Sustainability is at the core of everything we do. Nature drives us. The Southern Ocean is our arena. There, the world’s best sailors - champions record breakers, pioneers - duel, with everything at stake. This is an ocean endurance test like no other. A true feat of human ambition. With each edition, the tools evolve - but the racetrack remains as unforgiving as ever. What began as a round-the-world adventure now stands as one of sport’s great challenges, with sailors pushing limits of possibility in pursuit of the ultimate glory - The Ocean Race trophy. Leg 1 of The Ocean Race Europe sets sail on 10 August 2025 from Kiel, Germany!
