Edisto Island Triathlon

The Edisto Island Triathlon brings swim, bike, and run racing to Edisto Beach each fall, with the finish-line awards held at Bay Creek Park beside the marina. It’s part of the SC Triathlon Series, and the flat island roads and calm late-October weather make it a favorite for first-timers and veterans alike.
