About this event
Experience the excitement of the Clovelly Gig Regatta, where Devon and Cornwall’s top gig rowing teams compete in a thrilling day of racing. Pilot gigs, originally designed for the competitive world of 18th- and 19th-century pilotage, are fast, seaworthy boats built for speed and endurance. Crews race at up to 9 knots through North Devon’s tidal waters, showcasing the skill and power that make gig rowing so exhilarating. Come cheer on the teams and enjoy a day of intense competition and fun for all!
