The third edition begins on the beach, among paddles, rows of surfskis and final checks before entering the water. Then the view opens across the Gulf: crews head offshore and the route between Chiavari, Sestri Levante and Punta Manara takes centre stage.
From 24 to 26 October, the Tigullio Challenge brings together international racing and the Italian Ragazzi Championship. The collected images show everything around the competition: athletes’ concentration, work ashore, the distance between the buoys and the return to the beach.
An edition to watch again
The album of twenty photographs preserves different views of the same weekend, from details of the crews to wide perspectives across the coast. The official film adds movement and sound, following the event from preparation to racing.
It is the portrait of an event with a clear identity: a competition that uses the sea as its racecourse and the Tigullio landscape as a living part of its story.
