What is Marnaton? We’re talking about one of the most beloved open water swimming events in the Mediterranean.

It’s not just about distance or time on the stopwatch. It’s about how the landscape changes while you swim, the direct connection with the sea, and the feeling of crossing places that can only be observed from land.

This idea is exactly what gave birth to the Marnaton eDreams Cup, one of the best-known open water swimming circuits in the Mediterranean. A race calendar that every year brings hundreds of swimmers along some of the most spectacular coastlines in Spain, turning each stage into an experience that combines sport, nature and discovery.

The 2026 edition of the Marnaton eDreams Cup confirms the spirit that has made this circuit one of the most iconic events in European open water swimming.

Year after year, Marnaton has grown into much more than a simple series of races. Today it represents a true international community of swimmers who share the same passion for the sea and for adventure in the water.

The 2026 calendar crosses some of the most spectacular locations along the Spanish coast, taking participants to swim through Mediterranean landscapes made of cliffs, hidden coves and crystal-clear waters. The courses are designed to highlight the territory and offer a truly immersive experience.

Among the developments for the season is the continued growth of the circuit, with initiatives designed to make the experience even more accessible and engaging for swimmers: more distance options, greater attention to the open water community, and an organisation increasingly focused on strengthening the connection between sport, nature and place.

This approach allows both experienced athletes and swimmers approaching open water for the first time to find their own personal challenge, turning every stage into a moment of sport as well as discovery.

Within this context, the collaboration between Zoggs and Marnaton also takes shape, born from the same vision of open water swimming.

For both, open water is not just about sporting performance. It is exploration, freedom and connection with the natural environment. It is the pleasure of entering the water and discovering the sea from a different perspective, stroke after stroke.

The partnership between Zoggs and Marnaton stems from this shared philosophy: supporting events that place the experience of swimming in the sea and the community that lives it at the centre.

In open water environments, equipment also plays a fundamental role. Swimming among cliffs, bays and open sea requires comfort, visibility and safety — elements that have always guided the development of Zoggs products dedicated to open water swimming. From the iconic Predator goggles, designed to guarantee clear vision even in changing light conditions, to accessories created to accompany swimmers in their sea adventures.

Through this collaboration, Zoggs supports some of the most representative stages of the circuit, helping both swimmers and organisers with its experience in the world of swimming and open water.

Among these stand out two iconic events of the season: Begur and Sant Feliu de Guíxols, both located in the heart of the Costa Brava, where the sea and Mediterranean landscape become an integral part of the race experience.

The Begur stage is one of the most fascinating of the entire circuit.

Located along one of the most scenic stretches of the Costa Brava, the race crosses clear waters surrounded by rocky cliffs and small hidden bays.

Swimming here means immersing yourself in an extraordinary natural environment, where every stretch of coastline tells a different story. The course allows swimmers to experience the sea from a unique perspective, turning the race into a true open water experience.

It is no coincidence that this stage is among the most anticipated by swimmers in the circuit.

Another key stage of the Zoggs x Marnaton collaboration is Sant Feliu de Guíxols, a location with a strong connection to sea swimming.

Here the race takes place in a spectacular setting, where the Mediterranean coastline meets deep waters and open sea views.

The atmosphere of the event is one of the elements that makes it special: athletes, enthusiasts and spectators come together to share the same passion for open water, creating an environment that brings together sport, community and love for the sea.

Events like the Marnaton eDreams Cup show how open water swimming has become much more than a sporting discipline over the years.

It is a way to explore new places, challenge yourself and share the same passion with other swimmers.

And it is precisely this spirit that makes the collaboration between Zoggs and Marnaton so natural: a partnership built on the same idea of swimming, where every race becomes an opportunity to experience the sea and discover the territory through the water.
