Hong Kong's cross-habour swimming race is making a comeback on December 12, after a two-year hiatus due to the Covid-19 outbreak and the 2019 protests.
Organisers have set a quota of 1,500 swimmers, and participants have to be fully vaccinated and get a negative test result within 48 hours before the event.
Swimmers must also use the government's LeaveHomeSafe app, submit an online health declaration form, and have their temperature checked when they enter the venue. They will also have to keep their masks on at any time when they are not in the water.
Swimmers will also take a new route this year, starting at the Wan Chai Golden Bauhinia Square Public Pier and ending at the Avenue of Stars in Tsim Sha Tsui.
Registration will be open till November 22.
